Listing ID Search

[infoseeker]

Hi all,

I have been figuring it out how to add listing ID search on every page. So visitors can find a listing by only entering listing ID. I have tried to modify my_listings.tpl and add few code on index and main.tpl on templates\default\main directory but it still didn't work.

Can anybody share and solve this?!

Thanks in advance.

Hi infoseeker,

Did you get your answer?  If so, let us know what it was.

You can use {search property="id"}.

Thanks Lena.

Thanks Lena. It works awesome.

Did you know how to add option list? Search ID you told me was for Home for sale. I wish to enable users to choose between fro sale and rent.

I believe this will make much better.

Thanks in advance.

Dudes..I believe many of you expect to add search id feature.

Here I will explain below

I. FIND HOME (FOR SALE) PAGE (search_form.tpl)

Add this code above city input form

<!--NEW ID SEARCH FEATURE-->   <tr>   <td class="searchFormCaption" >[[$form_fields.id.caption]]:</td><td>{search property=id}</td>
      </tr><!--END OF NEW ID SEARCH FEATURE-->

II. FIND RENTAL PAGE (search_rent_form.tpl)

Add this code above city input form

<!--NEW ID SEARCH FEATURE-->   <tr>   <td class="searchFormCaption" >[[$form_fields.id.caption]]:</td><td>{search property=id}</td>
      </tr><!--END OF NEW ID SEARCH FEATURE-->

III. QUICK SEARCH (quick_search.tpl)
Add this code if you want to add Listing ID Search on Quick Search

<!--NEW ID SEARCH FEATURE-->
         <tr><td>{$form_fields.id.caption} :</td><td colspan=3>{search property=id}</td></tr>
         
      <!--END OF NEW ID SEARCH FEATURE-->

IV. You can also add this great feature to users' menu (left block) on each page by simply adding this code on main.tpl & index.tpl

<div class="pollBlock">

            {module name="classifieds" function="search_form" form_template="id_search_sale.tpl" listing_type_id="HomesForSale"}</div>      
<div class="pollBlock">

            {module name="classifieds" function="search_form" form_template="id_search_rent.tpl" listing_type_id="HomesForRent"}</div>      


Note: Make sure you add these codes AFTER " {module name="poll" function="poll_form"} </div>". I am now trying to locate better position but I have yet to find best solution.

Finally, you must create 2 (two) file to support the function.

id_search_sale.tpl >> Save this file to templates\yourtheme\classifieds

<form action="{$GLOBALS.site_url}/search_results/">
<input type="hidden" name="listing_type[equal]" value="{$listing_type_id}" />
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="search">
   <table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
   
      
         
<!--NEW ID SEARCH FEATURE-->
            <tr>

                    <td align="left" style="font-weight:bold" colspan="2">Seacrh Listing by IDl</td>

            </tr>
         <tr><td align="left" width="10">{$form_fields.id.caption} </td><td colspan=1>{search property=id}</td>
         <td align="right" colspan="2">
            <input type="submit" class="button" value="[[GO:raw]]"/>
         </td>
         
         </tr>
         
      
         <!--END NEW SEARCH ID-->
         
      
         

   </table>

</form>
