PhilD Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I've tried searching but can't find one, but is there a mod so that categories can be displayed for search results. Rather than just return 200 results for a search in one long list, have them broken down by their categories. Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to return the link to the category if I find a product matching my search criteria ? ie. category : Movies product : Star Wars the Movie category : Action Figures product : Star Wars - Luke Skywalker So if I search for Star Wars - I ONLY results I get back are : link to Movies link to Action Figures Is this what you're asking ?

PhilD Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 Yes, but I only what the products in those categories that match the search to be displayed. When you do a search for "Star Wars", instead of returning just a complete list of all products matching "Star Wars", it returns the results by category. So if I had 500 products with "Star Wars" in the name, I'd like to be able to show the search results by category, not just one big list. As it would make it easier for people to find what they are looking for. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks do you mean display the product, but *group* the results by category ? search Star Wars. return : Category One match 1 match 2 Category Two match 1 Category Three match 1 match 2 match 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilD Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 do you mean display the product, but *group* the results by category ?Yes, that would work perfectly. I explain it rather badly, but that is what I'm looking for. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidinottawa Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Yes, that would work perfectly. I explain it rather badly, but that is what I'm looking for. cool thought. i'll take a closer look at the search query. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Has anyone found a solution for this yet? I've extremely interested in something along these lines. Thanks, Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
