Search By Selected Fields

[nicholaus1221]

It seems members have to select all the different search categories when searching for members, because if you leave one blank nothing come up. Is there a way to allow members to search by selecting any number of search fields, and then it would populate the results by filtering the selected fields, such as I’m looking for both guys and girls (btw I haven’t figured out how to search for both guys and girls) in New York and have the other search fields not selected just default to all?

It just makes it difficult to have to fill out every search field every time otherwise the search comes up blank.

Any help would be much appreciated,
Thank you,
Nicholaus

Hi
We will do some tests on our servers and we might include it in 1.4.1 update

Thank you and hopefully it will be included as that is an important option! 🙂

On a side note, I’ve been trying to add search capabilities to the site wide search widget such as hashtags in the activity feed, but the plugins I’ve been using haven’t been working. I know the original BuddyPress site wide search allows you to search everything and is easy to add plugins to enable increased search capabilities. Is there a way to enable the original search form from BuddyPress or to allow the plugins to use your search form?

Thank you again for your help,
Nicholaus

This is already how my search works. I can for example select only the city, and the members of the city show, or I can select only the max age, and members up until that age is displayed. You can see it here:
http://norskmodell.no/medlemmer/

After I have selected the max age of 20, the url changes to this:
http://norskmodell.no/medlemmer/?field_3=&field_6=&field_17=&field_2=&field_2_to=18&bs=+

and 7 members are found. I don’t know if it has any impact but I have chosen to NOT display a search button, so that every field is auto-updated when ever changed. Perhaps this is a solution to your problem Nicholaus?

Hey twoshoes,

Thank you for the post, that actually helped me to see what my site should be acting like. For some reason it doesn’t act like yours. What type of field type do you have the profile fields selected as? I’m using mostly “Multi Select Box” field types, maybe that’s the reason. Getting rid of the search button helped a little bit, so thank you for adding that additional detail.

It’s odd also because when I click the “All Members” link, it doesn’t show any of the members. I may end up just reinstalling the theme and see if that helps, the search part is such a key aspect of my site I have to have it working properly.

Thanks,
Nicholaus

Hey twoshoes,

I figured out what it was 🙂 It was the multi select box for the field type in profile fields. You have to have the drop down select box chosen instead.

Thanks,
Nicholaus

We will test the multi select fields and make it act like the select box

Hi all

I think that I also have the same issue

> a search from the homepage = ok
http://www.compalove.com/membres/?field_3=&field_6=&field_18=&field_110=&field_110_to=&bs=+

> but if you search again from the reult page, no results
http://www.compalove.com/membres/?field_3=&field_6=&field_18=&field_110=&field_110_to=&field_22%5B%5D=&bs=+

PS : again thx a lot for your incredible work

I would like my search to result in groups instead of members. Is there an easy way to change the results that the search displays? I just want someone to be able to search by city instead of individual members. “Find your city group to get started”

THanks!
Julie

I thought I had it, but it is still resulting in members and not groups 🙁

[girlinparis]

That’s ok, I have decided to go with a different angle and it works with that. It’s a better solution anyway. Thanks for the great theme! Looking forward to some new features and the facebook signup/login working. 🙂

Hi
I am glad you worked it out. The Facebook login works, you just need to create an Application and then enter the APP ID in Sweetdate -> Miscellaneous

Hi

http://www.compalove.com/?lang=fr

> If you make a search in french
> the result page is in english (no language parameter in the search hidden fields ?)

Thx in advance for your return / interest

[SQadmin]

Hi, We are testing this and will let you know the solution. Thanks

Hi,
You need to do two things to add the lang parameter:
1. Replace the content of the main theme file: sweetdate/custom_buddypress/kleo-bp-search.php with this one:
https://archived.seventhqueen.com/files/kleo-bp-search.txt

2. add this code in your sweetdate-child/functions.php:

COPY CODE

add_action('kleo_bp_search_add_data','my_translated_field');
function my_translated_field()
{
    if (defined('ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE'))
    {
        echo "<input type='hidden' name='lang' value='".ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE."'>";
    }
}

That should do the trick.
