Ok, email sent. If you don’t see it be sure to check your spam folder as it may have gotten incorrectly filtered to there.

Did you see the installation instructions? It should be pretty straightforward, but let me know if you have any specific questions.

I have just released a new version: 2.2. This is a bugfix which addresses your issue. After you upgrade, please deactivate the plugin and then re-activate it.

Yes, this looks like something faceted search could have solved. Too bad the question expired. Thanks for the heads up though. Also, I’ve never seen that site, so it’s good to know that’s there.

Thanks very much for pointing this out as it’s something I missed during implementation when refactoring things for version 2.x (version 1.0 should work just fine). I’ll try to get an update out asap, but it may be as late as next week or so as I’m currently pressed for time.

@michayu, yeah Scriblio looks pretty cool.

@mattdot, thanks for mentioning that. I didn’t know you could create your own custom taxonomies until you mentioned it. If you want to search within a single taxonomy, I imagine you could simply change the word ‘category’ in the plugin’s script to the name of the taxonomy that you created, but if you have lots of different taxonomies (in your case) that you want to search across, maybe you should check out that Scriblio thing that michayu mentioned. To be honest, it may be a while until I get around to implementing custom taxonomy faceted search features for this plugin unless I start getting help maintaining the code.

I just released version 2.1 which has some bugfixes. Maybe this helps? Sorry for not getting back sooner, we just had a baby!

I just released an update with a bugfix. Can you update the plugin and see if it’s still there? Thanks for the feedback.

So when you say you selected a subcategory and remained on the same listing, that implies you did a search prior, right? And does that mean a search with a category selected that is a supercategory/ancestor of that subcategory? I’m just asking because if a supercategory is selected, of course it will display all posts in that category and all its descendant categories, and then when a subcategory is clicked, if all the categories listed also belong to that subcategory, then nothing will change. So I guess I should ask: If you select its supercategory only and search, do you get extra results, and if not, are there posts belonging only to the supercategory or to the subcategory’s siblings and not to the subcategory?

Another thing to check: Does the page actually reload when you click “search”? I just want to make sure it’s really being submitted.

Also, no there isn’t anything else to do other than make sure javascript is enabled in your browser. I do appreciate feedback though, so if you do find a flaw, please let me know, as this 2.0 release is very new and hasn’t yet been as thoroughly tested as its predecessor. In that same vein, I hope you do not rush to click the “It’s broken” button on the plugin listing, and thank you if you haven’t yet done so.

That is wierd, but if you’re using the ‘more’ tag, and it’s still not working, then at that point I think it’s just how wordpress itself ignores ‘more’ tags in search results if the search result is a page. The best thing to do would be to submit a patch to wordpress itself to correct this. The next best thing would be to make a plugin that ‘works around’ this problem. I don’t think it’s relevant to the faceted search plugin though, as it just specifies what to retrieve, and not how it’s displayed once it’s retrieved.

As a disclaimer, I haven’t tested this myself, and am basing this suggestion solely on what you’ve said in the other thread.

rot8tor, in that case, I’d say this is not an issue for this specific plugin but rather for wordpress search results in general. I don’t see why someone shouldn’t submit a patch to wordpress itself that will allow the ‘more’ tag to work for pages as well as posts, and I think it’s a good idea. But this part of the forum is for the faceted search plugin and not for that.

writenowrong, please see Version 2 which was released today. It has both collapseable category trees and an extra admin page where you can rearrange your categories and order them.

All, I’d like to humbly ask that you please don’t recycle threads unless it’s relevant to the original topic discussed on it. If you want to start a new topic, please start a new thread. This is a courtesy to those who post on a thread and are notified of new posts via e-mail. If they keep getting emails on a thread that has drastically deviated from the topic they were interested in, then it’s almost like spamming them, and it partially defeats the purpose of subscribing to the thread in the first place. It’s also a courtesy to those who search through these threads for specific information.

Does this help?

I actually had a breakthrough the other day, and am in the process of rewriting this plugin with more features. Donations are always welcome, but I have to hold off on contract work for now since I just got a new job, and so am really strapped for time right now.

Ok, I’ve got good news and bad news for you:
first, the bad news is I took a closer look at term_order, and I think it actually is supposed to signify the order of display of tags in an article, but if you’re ok with messing with that, that’s fine.

The good news is your second request is fairly easy. Just replace line 380 with an ‘if’ statement as follows:

if($tag['level'] == 0)
{
$returnstring1 = $tag['name'];
}
else
{
$returnstring1 = $returnstring1 = '<li><label for="searchterm[]">'.$tag['name'].'</label><input type="checkbox" name="searchterm[]" value="'.$tag['term_id'].'" /> </li>';
}
