We still have no real search for fields. There are only the filter addons
Now i think about how it would be to have the selection of multi-prefixes (from XON),
but with some rules to choose from several group as radio or checkbox.
1. radios
My car is
BMW
Mercedes
Porsche
The color is
red
blue
green
The car is
new
old
Show me all old mercedes in red!
For fields with "from to", i would prefer radios like 2000-5000, 5001 till 8000
not perfect, but in some cases ok.
2. To use checkboxes
My car has
2 doors
4 wheels
a radio
Show me all old mercedes in red with 2 doors, 4 wheels and a radio
How we could build something like that?
1. set up groups (have an id)
2. save info about that group/id like
=> group xyz => radio
=> group abd => check,2,4
3. Then we would need forms to add, edit them per group as select or multi-select,
radios or checkboxes.
To use a lot of prefixes we could use a sidebar in thread_list
But
are the prefixes (with multi_prefix addon) the right way to make some more complicated queries?
Show me all
old
mercedes
in red
with 2 doors
4 wheels
a radio
age 2-5 years
price 2000-5000
means something like (i dont know how prefix_ids are saved)
select * from where prefix_id IN (1,2,3 ... 8 numbers) AND
where
prefix_ids like "%1,%" AND
prefix_ids like "%2,%" AND
prefix_ids like "%3,%" AND
...
Is this a good way at all?
