Cities dropdown based on Region Select

[wakaka]

But using original category select didn`t remember what we select. How to make it remember what we have been select?

But using original category select didn`t remember what we select. How to make it remember what we have been select?

 <?php osc_categories_select('sCategory', null, __('Select a category', 'modern')) ; ?> is default in modern theme for categories.

I have used @cartagena68's code in inc.search.php and search.php. After submit search in homepage, the next page's url has "&page=search&sPattern=gibson&sCategory=97&sRegion=742322&sCity=44727&sPriceMin=&sPriceMax=#.UWKzGFdy1gs. Now if you use the same code from inc.search.php in search.php (criteria sidebar), the sregion is remembered but scity nope. Also, if i repeat search from criteria (select Region and City), the generated url after submit looks like:?page=search&sOrder=dt_pub_date&iOrderType=desc&sPattern=gibson&sRegion=742322&sCity=&sPriceMin=&sPriceMax=&sCategory[]=97&
You can see that the sCity value is not passed in the url.

Finally, the dropdowns values are the region and city ids. That works fine for search BUT it seems that the default search method is to use the city and region names. You can see that by pressing the city name in breadcrumbs.

If i understud you want the drop down in sidebar of search.php
I dont know if is possible to use it.
I'm using classic theme and the inc.search.php is on every page, so the drop down is allready in header section of search.php also, the sidebar search is just for refine search.
In modern theme inc.search.php is only in main page.
You can try, if you like, to do the same in modern theme, keep the original search.php sidebar and add the inc.search.php in every page.
You just need to add the code

Code: [Select]

<?php osc_current_web_theme_path('inc.search.php') ; ?>
in your header.php where you like to show the search bar (usually just before the widgets code "<?php osc_show_widgets('header') ; ?>" ) and delete the same code (<?php osc_current_web_theme_path('inc.search.php') ; ?>) from main.php

Like that you have the drop down in every page.

Thanks for the suggestion but even though i have moved the inc.search.php in header (removed from main.php) the city is not remembered at the next page.

I will search a little more about this and if i dont find what is wrong, i wll remove city in both inc.search and search.php

@cartagena68

In your site after you search with dropdowns, the region and city are remembered in the sidebar(textfields). Now if you press the search button at the end of the sidebar, the url is different and that means dublicate page

@ geo78

I think that inc.search.php and search.php are a little different.
With inc.search.php you can search with regions and cities IDs, i dont know if is possible also using the search sidebar.
I used the cities Ids to solve the problem with the duplicate city names all around USA.
Before, if i search in a city that have a duplicate name in other state, give me "no results".

The 2 pages are different becouse inc.search.php use cities and regions IDs and sidebar use cities and regions names, i don't know if this will create any problem.

to remeber the city name in sidebar you should have in the input value "<?php echo osc_search_city() ; ?>"

If you look at the end of the sidebar i also list the cities with ads in the searched region

Ive used the code cartagena68 provided the 3th april.
The dropdown city box based on region is working well but the cities are not displayed alphabetically.
Im sure this is easy to solve but ive tried fixing it and couldnt find the solution.

hi i have also a problem in item post and item edit the regions and cities are not selectable and on mouse over there is a cross like "(/)".
i also have tried  <?php ItemForm::location_javascript(); ?>  (my theme is twitter(repurpose) and i can't find  <?php ItemForm::location_javascript_new(); ?> in any file so i place this line " <?php ItemForm::location_javascript(); ?>" without replacing any other).
After placing this line there was two problems:-
problem 1:  subcategories not appear on electing categories.
problem 2:  regions and cities not update according to selection of countries.(there are states of first country. i.e. the country listed in top and don't update they remains same)
I hope any one helps me.
I also want to tell that in admin panel the cities and regions update according to countries as well regions.

@cartagena68 thanks for your code it works well for me! Do you know how can i add a country dropdown too? i added a dropdown but i think it needs some more code and js it doesn't update  regions based on countires

Code: [Select]

<?php $aCountries = Country :: newInstance()->listAll();?>
        <?php if (count($aCountries) > 0) {?>
        <select name="sCountry" id="sCountry">
        <option value="">Select Country</option>
        <?php foreach ($aCountries as $Country) {?>
        <option  value="<?php echo $Country['s_name'];?>"><?php echo $Country['s_name'];?></option>
        <?php } ?>
        </select>

        <?php } ?>

Hi cartagena68,

I really like your select2 option, but I would like to use it on the seach_list.php page...on the side bar menu.

only for Region + City and I have only categories (no sub)

Do you think you could help me on this ?

Many thanks,
Vincent

Hi Vincent,
i don't know if is possible to use for search-sidebar.
I think search-sidebar is nice like that with autocomplete.
