FAQ Like Search Box for Literature Items

Jul 13, 2012 10:36 AM

Tags: #categories #literature #search_box

Any way to create an FAQ like Search Box for literature items?  The idea is that site visitors would be able to choose a category and/or sub-category of literature items before being presented with the list of items contained in that selected category and/or sub-category.

    Not with the system as is.

     

    You could include Items from the media module manually in an FAQ answer (manual add to FAQ with custom links in wysisyg) or past the {module_literature,c,insertclassificationidhere,} tag call into the content / source.

     

    Another option would be to create a page with html block elements containing the media downloads tags (filtering on a classification) and then manipulate the presentation with javascript. Example would be tabs or an accordian layout each element pulling in the appropriate media downloads by category.

     

    You could also create pages that did the same and then pull them into a presentation element with Ajax calls from another page.

    I think you could do this with YQL from Yahoo but it might be tricky. Depends how developer minded you are.

     

    Just an extra option however I do think that Jeff Selsers idea will work pretty good in most cases.
