Drop-down list

    Hello,

    First, thank you for your great plugin.

    Just want to customize a little bit more, my search form is on the member’s page, only on one xprofile field.

    Instead of a search field where people can type everything they want, since the filter is on a xprofile field with only a fixed number of values, I would prefer to have a drop-down list with only the value that this field can have.

    For example if my field is “team” and fixed values for this field are “1”, “2” and “3”, I want only those in the drop-down list.

    I tried something like this in a bp-custom.php file in “wp-content/plugins” directory, I found that code in another post :

    add_action ('bps_field_before_search_form', 'set_placeholder');
function set_placeholder ($f)
{
	if ($f->code == 'field_9' && $f->display == 'selectbox')
	{
		$f->options[''] = '1';
                $f->options[''] = '2';
                $f->options[''] = '3';

	}
}

    But nothing changes, I certainly missed something..

    Thank you for your help ??

    So, I found how to manage it :).

    Now, is it possible to refresh results just after we select a choice in the drop-down field without clicking on “search” button ?

    If yes is it possible to hide search button ?

    Is it also possible to hide the actual selection and the button to flush it because since the field is shown in the drop-down selection, it’s not necessary to show it just above.

    Thank you

    Ok, I found how to hide the actual selection and the button to flush it.

    Now if I could remove the search button and make the form refresh on each new selection would be great !

    Hi lbnn,

    I’m glad you found a way to implement the features you need!

    Unfortunately the last one, the ability to refresh the search results without hitting ‘Search’, is not available and I can’t see a feasible way to add it. Sorry!

    Thank you for your answer, I think there is some AJAX beside this related to onchange() event but not a lot of skills in this on my side…

    Can you just try to help me to change position of this button, I found no way to put it on the right side of the selectbox, he always go below..

    Thank you

    Hi lbnn,

    If you wish to change the appearance of your form, you can edit the form template, see:

    Unfortunately I am not an HTML and CSS expert and I am unable to suggest a specific solution for your request.
