Search in only current category was created by internis19

Hello,

I have made many categories in my ads configuration. And for each categorie, I have set up a search module with the field of the selected or current categorie menu. The issue comes when someone try an empty search on ads search module. As results, the search displays results from others categories also. The goal am trying to achieve is to restrict search results only on the current categorie or parent one if needed. What should do to get that result please?

I hope I have been so specific to me more helpful.

Thanks for all assistance

Hello,

The solution is to custom the search module.

Create an override of the search module view (www.joomprod.com/support/doc/customization.html) and instead of using a select for the category filter, use a input type='hidden' with the current category as a value.

Best regards.

Hello,

Yes, in the module view (the simple search module or the advanced), replace the search by category block :

<div class="<?php echo $class; ?>">
                    <div class="control-group">
                        <?php if($display_cat_label == 1): ?>
                            <label class="control-label" for="catid"><?php echo JText::_('ADSMANAGER_SELECT_CATEGORY_LABEL') ?></label>
                        <?php else: ?>
                            <label class="control-label" for="catid"><?php echo $searchLabel ?></label>
                        <?php endif; ?>
                        <div class="controls">
        <?php 
        switch(@$conf->single_category_selection_type) {
            default:
            case 'normal':
                JHTMLAdsmanagerCategory::displayNormalCategories("catid",$cats,$catid,array("allow_empty"=>true,'id'=>"catid-".$moduleId));break;
            case 'color':
                JHTMLAdsmanagerCategory::displayColorCategories("catid",$cats,$catid,array("allow_empty"=>true,'id'=>"catid-".$moduleId));break;
            case 'combobox':
                JHTMLAdsmanagerCategory::displayComboboxCategories("catid",$cats,$catid,array("allow_empty"=>true,'id'=>"catid-".$moduleId));break;
                break;
            case 'cascade':
                if ($type == "horizontal") 
                    $separator = "";
                else
                    $separator = "<br/>";
                JHTMLAdsmanagerCategory::displaySplitCategories("catid",$cats,$catid,array('separator'=>$separator,'id'=>"catid-".$moduleId));break;
        }
        ?>
                        </div>
                    </div>	
                </div>

By that line :

<?php echo '<input type="hidden" name="catid" id="catid-'.$moduleId.'" value="'.$catid.'" />'; ?>

Then, you just need to be sure that the category selected in the current one.

You can do something like that just before the last code :

$input = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
$currentCat = $input->get('catid', 0, 'integer');
//We check if the $currentCat exist, otherwise we simply use the default setting
if($currentCat != 0) {
    $catid = $currentCat;
}

I did not test that code, I wrote it here to help you with your custom code.

Best regards.
