CGBlog search results by category

carasmo · **Posted:** Thu Jun 07, 2012 4:03 pm

There are four categories:

Category 1
Category 2
Category 3
Category 4

When a person searches the site, I need to return the results and go to detail page for that category. From my code below, as you can see it goes to the blog detail page and shows up fine, for all categories, what I want is something like the second code chunk,

Code:

{*start blog*}
{if $entry->module == "CGBlog"}

<li>{$entry->title} &mdash;
{capture assign="results"}{CGBlog action=detail articleid=$entry->modulerecord detailpage="blog" detailtemplate='searchresults'}{/capture}
<a href="{$articleURL}">{$articleTitle}&mdash;{$articleDate}</a></li>
{/if}
{*end*}

THIS IS WRONG, I don't know what I'm doing here.

Code:

{*start blog filter search*}
{if $entry->module == "CGBlog" & category == "Category 1}

<li>{$entry->title} &mdash;
{capture assign="results"}{CGBlog action=detail articleid=$entry->modulerecord detailpage="category1" detailtemplate='category1searchresults'}{/capture}
<a href="{$articleURL}">{$articleTitle}&mdash;{$articleDate}</a></li>
{/if}
{*end*}

Please PM the estimated hour range to do this and the price per hour, gotta tell the client.

This link below has instructions for results based on language and category, the entire site is in english, I just want it filtered on category:

Not sure if it will help BUT check my forum topic http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=61947

This topic was related to News but I'm sure with a bit of tweaking it could work with CGBlog.

The trick is to refine it to your requirements in the {if}{else} statements. Get the whole Search results then filter down to those you need for each module category.
