Tagged: custom fields, free text, Taxonomies, taxonomy, text input, V3
Hi,
I’d like my search for to have several free text inputs, each corresponding to a taxonomy or a custom field.
For example I have a custom post type of Songs, each song has a taxonomy of Performing Artist and a custom field for the name of the CD. I’d like the user to be able to type “Adele” in the performing artist input or “21” in CD input and not have to find them on a list.
Is this possible to achieve? I see the plugin only lets me add lists to the form
You wish to have multiple text search fields in one form. I am sorry, but this is not possible in the current version of our plugin.
It will be possible in V3, where you will be able to select the source for the text field to search. We are well on our way to completing this new version. It will comprise of two core plugins; the replacement for the free version of our plugin (which in V3 will be necessary for the V3 Pro version to work) and the V3 Pro addon. We have completed the free (core) version. However, I cannot give a timescale on how much longer that will take us to complete.
