K2 Filter is not showing any results when searching using extra fields

samratsaam

Hi
I am using K2 filter for conducting a search based upon extra fields. But It is not showing any results. Also could you please tell me if I can achieve same results using Megafilter. The formatting is also different. I used the k2 theme which comes with the filter but I think it is not working. Please guide about this as well.

The link for the K2 Filter implementation is in the submenu of Study Destination. samratsaam

I wish if these links are not visible to others.

samratsaam Hi. First thing is that the text fields in filers are not the best idea since users will not know what to choose from I've disabled it already since I believe You wanted to show a title of the course in results anyway.

Now You need to add a K2 Filter page to menu settings and than select it in module options as a page for results display. Last thing will be to go to K2 Filter component and index search results.

Hi, thank you for your response. I am still working on it. In the mean while could you please tell me, how can I bring this in the center. This is left aligned right now. also when I put a text field there it appears with different formatting. please let me know how to change the appearance. the text box looks as it shows in the above image.

samratsaam Hi. Please try with this css:


.ja-k2filter.vertical-layout, .ja-k2filter.horizontal-layout {
    text-align: center;
}

div ul.horizontal-layout li {
    float: none;
    padding: 0 5px;
    display: inline-block;
}

Thank you for your replay.....
I was talking about this module which is left aligned. The text is centered but there is lot of space on the right. I wish to have same margin on the left and right. Also the formatting of the three different type of elements is different. image -1.png
Also if it is possible to show one text field on the front but not use it in sorting. It is just for input's sake.....for example....please check the image-2.png. I tried to work with the parameters in the module settings but it didn't.

samratsaam Hi. This module is a filter, so the text field cannot be just deattached. You will have to get rid of it so it will not be included in search.

The width may not be accurate, but please try and change it to as You wish:

.jak2filter-form-547 {
max-width: 1200px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
