Selection on custom fields; "select * from where"

Post by Lucaz »

I've been working on indiafestival.nl.

The content off this website is simple, there are articles and events, both controlled with an CMS.

An event has got some parameters or field, how you wanna call it:
Genre, Hall, Date, Location.

- I can go to the agenda where a list off dates will be shown:
http://www.indiafestival.nl/index.nl.ph ... 12-11-2008
So a selection has been made on Date

- I can select on Location:
http://www.indiafestival.nl/index.nl.ph ... n=locaties
Where selection has been made on Location.

- I can select on Genre:
http://www.indiafestival.nl/index.nl.ph ... genre&id=2
Where selection has been made on Genre.

Now my question, how can I do this in CMS Made Simple. When I use the Module Page Block, I can make content with custom defined fields. But how can I make a selection in the front-end? How can I select on a specific field?

Might this be where I should be looking for?

Hope you can help me out here.
