Search Questions

Hi Joe,

Its Vishnu again ! I'm so excited and I keep exploring.

Hopefully, I'm able to achieve these through customization since I'm not an ASP developer.

1. How do I give more options to the user on search ? The way you have done with the search of this website, I would like to limit my user search on one particular section (profiles or blogs etc) of the web site and I want to give a link to this kind of search in the respective features

2. How can I give user the control on other search parameters like, display "forum posts" about "rentals" in "Bangalore" during "last one week"?

3. Once the first 2 are accomplished, How do I let the user select/use custom mojo profile fileds as the search parameters for a search on profiles while doing a profile search?

Re: Search Questions

Hi Vishnu,

This site is running the very latest code with recent improvements to the search. I will be explaining the new features soon via docmentation and blog posts. 

However it does not meet all your requests. The search engine is only used for content not users. There is currently no way to lookup users by custom profile fields. I did implement the ability to filter search by feature so you can search only forums or blogs or whatever, but it does not yet allow searching only a specific forum or by date.

Some of those things like the ability to search specific forums or by date and more advanced user search may come in the future.

Best,

Joe
