filtering form browser entries - classifieds

Post by lewis »

Hi,
I would like to make some classifieds system on the website, so I made a form and connected form browser to it.And now I can see the classifieds, but I would like to filter them. eg. I have categories 'for sale', 'wanted', 'freebies' and this is dropdown list in my form (name it 'category').  I would like to display only records that have 'freebies' set in this particular form field.

I am seeing some field_id in help of Formbrowser, but it isn't documented and I don't know what does it do.

I know that I can filter out the records in loop displaying them, but what about pagination? It will not keep track of my filter in template and it will lost itself when user switch the page...

Any ideas how to do this?

Has any found a solution to this?
I need a solution to filter through the FormBrowser tag almost as the search solution but only as an tag option.
If anyone have made a code that could do the job I would be very happy.

Any new progress on this matter?

I have a Form Builder form that includes a possibility for user to select a category in which the post belongs to. I can list all posts on my site through Form Browser, and even sort them according to category. But what I would have to do now, is to filter the posts by category (preferably by clicking a link with the name of the category), and show only the posts that belong to that category.

Any suggestions?
