 I've scoured forums and found only partial or unanswered posts related to this. If someone can explain specifically how to do this...
The browse page has three default filters at the right for Age, Sex & Country. I'd like to add an additional filter/search based on a new predefined value I've set up.
Thanks in advance for any pearls of wisdom and experience you can share. |
I found the Browse pretty useless on my particular site so I changed it to Quick Search. That allowed me to alter the block as I saw fit using the Search items in admin/builders/Profile Fields/Search Profiles. Seee images below.
Code: /templates/base/scripts/BxBaseIndexPageView.php Line 236 (approx) Change Browse.php? to read search.php? |
Hey John, I tried that but the replacing of the two didn't seem to have any impact on the page opening. But I achieved the same result by simply swapping out "browse.php" with "search.php" in the navigation menu
So how about this... How do I definitely remove those annoying filters that 99.999% of users won't ever use/need/want. You know the order by on the results side and the "online only & photo only" check boxes on the search side.
For the ordered by I'd assume just keeping it as ordered by latest activity without any user options is more than adequate Thanks as always for your input and assistance. |
Did you flush the cache and browser cache after making my changes? It's worked fine for me on several test sites and my live site. I actually use those filters regularly on mine and other sites so I've never tried to remove them. Surely if people don't wish to use them, they won't tick the boxes? |
I'll double check. Thanks again |
Hmmm, could there be a secondary place this needs to be changed? I checked the corresponding file in the template I use but that just imports everything from /templates/base/scripts/BxBaseIndexPageView.php
Attached are shots of the before and after I changed. Let me know if I did what you directed and if there is something else. |
I just tried it on a test site using the code I gave you and it worked perfectly. Just the two changes to a single file. I didn't have to flush the cache either. Maybe the other changes you made are conflicting, or do you have any 3rd party mods that may be overwriting the file? For example, being a template item another third party template may have an override file. |
I use a custom modified EVO template but that shouldn't conflict. I think the AQB Profile Splitter Extension may be overriding it. |
Have a look in the template's scripts directory for similar file. I use Agent Ransack which searches all files in a directory for words or strings. It's free and I couldn't live without it. |
