Hello to all,
I’d like to get the "Search Module" in a site like the one that appears in Template Directory, Please see image attached under another template. Meaning: "search" + "select category" + "select location", in the exact same layoyut like it shows in the picture attached.
Is this possible? if yes, HOW?
Many thanks in advance!
Antonio

I have the same request, I want to have a searchbar similar to that one on my frontpage that will lead to the megafilter component’s page. (searching article’s title for example). If it could have the extra filters as in iabicino’s image, that’s even better!
Thank you in advance

You can make the layout the same by using module JA MegaFilter, and setting for this module like this: https://static.joomlart.com/images/userguide/ja_templates/ja-directory/k2-filter-advance.jpg

(set module class suffix with a space before it. )

Hello,

Those options dont seem to appear on my settings. Am i doing something wrong?
(I don’t really care to have dropdown options, a single line search bar would also be ok)

Thank you

May I know which template are you using? These settings are available in JA Directory template only. If you’re using another template, you need to customize CSS for it.

I am using yootheme as my template. Which files should I customize to get that result? Is there another way to get that result? another search module maybe?

The idea is to get that result with another (or any other template) not with JA Directory, I don’t really like JA Directory that much. Is it possible?
Which css or style should be modify?
Thanks in advance folks!

Then you can check how it’s styled in JA Directory template here: http://www.joomlart.com/demo/#ja_directory , use Inspect Element to get the CSS and base on your site to add the CSS style fit with it.

Thanks Luna,
another question. Do this styling belong to JA directory only, or there are other JA templates that can be styled like you explained at the beginning?

Thanks again
A.

Yes, this style belongs to JA directory only, default style of JA MegaFilter look like this: http://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/1058/5351630794.png

There are other JA templates that can be styled like you explained at the beginning

You still have to mimic style if you’re not using JA Dirtectory.

Hello Luna,
I have realized that not only I have to install JA Directory package, but I have to download and install the K2 Filter package and when it comes to install JA K2 Filter Package for J25 & J3.x, it throws the following error:
Warning
JInstaller: :Install: Can’t find XML setup file.
Error
Unable to find install package

Why is this?
Please, see images attached

Hi,

Exclude file JA K2 Theme while installing. This file uses different way to install, just like this: https://www.joomlart.com/documentation/joomla-component/ja-k2-filter#custom-layout
