Hello everyone,
i bought this wonderful plugin but i’m having trouble to build what i need. I need to create a page with in the middle a long search bar and under it 3-4 comboboxes to filter the results. It’s like the Google search, only the bar in the middle of the page, the Search button in front of it and under the bar the comboboxes, here a simple scheme:
_______________________________
|SEARCH|…………………..| <—- search bar
_______________________________
_____________..____________..__________________
|Regions.|V|..|Stars..|V|..|Type of room..|V| <– comboboxes to filter results
_____________..____________..__________________
Sorry about the ugly “draw”, had to use dots to make the spaces.
So, how can i do that, to get a Google-like page with some combobox in it?
Thanks in advance!

Hey there
This depends on your theme really but there are some basic instructions to get you setup which involves adding some CSS to your theme:

Hi Ross,
I just bought your wonderful plugins, but i couldn’t set the search box and submit button in horizontal ( i read the documentation but couldn’t figure it out ) could you please help me with an explanation that newbie like me could understand it ? thank you
Hi Mukhtar
To answer your questions:
1) Your first point regarding horizontal can be done with CSS – but what you want is a customisation beyond the scope of support here. It is possible to achieve what you want but you must have the js/html/css skills to implement specifically what you want.
Info to simply to make it horizontal can be found here: https://support.searchandfilter.com/forums/topic/horizontal-layout/#post-6143
2) You can’t do the exact same thing, but you could use a date range (post meta field) to achieve something similar – as long as you store the listing date as post meta.
3) I’ll look in to this, are listings a custom post type?
Thanks

Hi Ross,
Sorry to disturb you again,
its urgent, plz reply as soon as possible.
I want to implement a search form on the page not side bar and want it to be horizontal like the following example: http://www.daltonsbusiness.com/buy/business-for-sale-listing
At the top of the results page you would see two search labels one “all sectors” and the other one “all countries” if you click on one of the sectors it shows you sub-sectors, click on sub-sectors it shows trades in each sub-sector. All countries works the same way.
Secondly, on the left, on the same page, there is a search option “Age of Listings” such as one week old, one month old and so on. Can we achieve these things with search and filter pro 2.0 using css or in any other way. I am using snf 2.0 version which you sent me last week.
Thirdly and lastly, snf 2.o does not search for new listings automatically, When I add new listings to the website i am working on.
Thank you

Hi Ross,
I need to know if there is any form to put a custom class for every search box, for example: I have a vertical form for my sidebar and an horizontal form for a top sidebar, they have different styles one is black and the other is white. Can you put de form id number in the form class to easily customize this search forms?
Hey Megan
S&F does not do the layout design work for you, it keeps things very basic so you can customise.
The problem you are describing is pretty much a generic html/css question which I can’t really provide an answer for unless I’m writing specific code for your site.
So first, to make the whole form horizontal you would need to do the following (may not work in all themes):

And then you would need to figure out the rest of the CSS changes you want to make yourself.
Theres plenty of info out there – what you want to be looking for is using CSS to style unordered lists (ul
– which is what all the fields are contained in) and I guess heading tags (h4
).
Thanks
