[ABD] CPF Member Search v.0.0.1

[4_seven]

http://rapid-search-engine.com/

thats one example, one space to search your things, 2/3 options and you are done

your image in last post show the normal member search. no clue, what you mean.
if you want to search a cpf field, you must have a field to enter a search term.
so your critic go to the phpbb engine itself. there it gives no 'one field for all search'.

you're welcome..

Here is some HTML from my cpf member search page, see how the options are not in order? They are 3,1,2 instead of 1,2,3.

Code: Select all

<select id="gender" name="gender">
<option selected="selected" value="x">&nbsp;</option>

<option value="3">Female</option>
<option value="1">Gender</option>
<option value="2">Male</option>
</select>

And another cpf on the search page. These are ordered 2,1,3 instead of 1,2,3.

Code: Select all

<select id="smoker" name="smoker">
<option selected="selected" value="x">&nbsp;</option>

<option value="2">No</option>
<option value="1">Smoker</option>
<option value="3">Yes</option>
</select>

[4_seven]

of course. its ordered by value name: a->z

[Volksdevil]

How do we order by value 'id'? Because the default value is '1' but showing not at the top?

[4_seven]

the option_id is only viewable in source code, so the only thing, which makes sense,
is to show the ordered lang_value. shure, you can recode this, but it makes no sense for me.

[Volksdevil]

Surely you believe that a 'default' value should be at the top 4_seven? and not different position in EVERY drop down menu?

That's how the rest of phpbb works? The default value is always selected/at the top.

[4_seven]

can be, but that not the way this mod works.
my way its more intuitive as the phpbb3 way.

the only thing you can try is

find in mod

Code: Select all

ORDER BY field_order, option_id DESC';

replace with

Code: Select all

ORDER BY option_id, field_order';

and see, what happens

[Volksdevil]

Just seems to change the order of the drop downs rather than the options inside. Thanks.

The way at the moment isn't like phpbb, as the defaults are all in different places and the options (numbered 1,2,3,4 etc) are all in wrong order.

[4_seven]

Then bad luck. the mod works perfect as intended and have an intuitive a->z pulldown sorting.
If you dont like the way it works, try to customize it. Unfortunately i have no xtra-time for recodings.

[Volksdevil]

I will try and correct it.

Hi 4seven,

i have one question. What is the difference between [RC] Search Custom Profile Field and your mod here?

Hi 4seven,

i have one question. What is the difference between [RC] Search Custom Profile Field and your mod here?

In Search Custom Profile Field mod you must add the code for each cpf search field manually. In this mod here the cpf search fields are auto-generated, no matter what kind of fields. Hope this explains.
