    usability? Simply check this --> AutoScout24
    The total amount of ads in the whole DB starting at the very beginning... if you start choosing custom fields dropdowns (atributes) the number change in order to show you the exact amount of ads availables depending your combos made... if your combo will return zero results then the "Search" button stop working... I find this very helpful and flexible enough to have it in every regular classified site.

    If you do not find this good it is because something different it is necessary in your case to fit your needs. BTW, I see what you are referring here it is a filtering system and not a real advanced search since you are not including "keywords".

    Regards,

    It would make sense if you have filtered results, like if i select country, related state/ region show up, if i select state/region related cities show up and if i select cities related street shows up then yes this would be a really usable plugin.

    As of now I feel there is lot of scope for improvement.

    Wishing you all the best.

    Now I get the point but since ClassiPress do not organize the custom fields that way (one depends or belong to another... they are simply separate post attributes in the DB) it is impossible to make it in an easy way... I have to think about organizing this but it is a lot of work to do since for this case you'll need manually to create everything depending from another custom field in the backend.
    Now, all you can do it is to choose to show only one custom field related the location of the ad (zipcode, area, citu, zone, country, state, or whatever)

    Sorry my english if some part are not clear... if so, please ask.
    Regards,

    Rubencio , do you have any example of a direct link search.
    Ex: Searching for Car in Washington.

    By click a Permalink name "Washington" it will show all the list of cars within "Washington".

    w3x.test.com/?s=washington&cat=6&sa=Search .. possible?

    [cat=6 is category for cars]
