eStore: Dropdown Search Feature Capability

[brodneil]

Hi, I have been searching the forum but it seems I cannot find what I am looking for.

Is it possible to have a dropdown search feature where people can get results according to the filters they select?

I am hoping to see a search feature where i use filters.

Example: a dropdown for Make of Car, a dropdown for the year or model, and dropdown for the color of the car. So if i select white for the first filter, 2012 for the second filter, and then chevrolet for the third filter… then I expect that the results should be under the following categories: white 2012 chevrolet. So those blue 2012 chevorlet would not be in the results.

Is this possible?

Thank you.

We don’t have a search shortcode with filter options like you explained. If you tell me what filters you want I will investigate it and maybe add a shortcode for it. Category will be one filter and then price could be another… any other filter you have in mind?

Thank you. I will try to read it now.

I am sorry I am still trying to finalize it. But this is initially what i have in mind:

In eStore, under Categories, I am thinking of grouping these categories and use that group to filter for the search feature.

Example of group of categories: color, model, year, engine, make, etc.

Then under each would be:

color: white, blue, silver, etc.

make: chevrolet, ford, toyota, etc.

year: 2013, 2012

So practically, I would like to use whatever I have in the categories for the search feature; or select at least 5 of the group of categories I can use for the search feature.

Hope my explanation is sound. Thank you.

All the best,

Neil
