Using the k2 search and filter module on joomla 2.5.
Let´s say I have the following setup on my frontend:
Keywords search (the standard text field)
tags (drop down menu)
art.nr. (text field)
Family (drop down menu)
tech (drop down menu)
Now my question is:
How do I make the “art.nr.” and “tags” fields searchable through “Keywords search” without having those fields showing up on my frontend? – I.e. associated with the keywords search but not published if that makes more sense.
My frontend would then only have:
Keywords search
Family
tech
But the Keywords search results would still incorporate results from “art.nr.” and “tags”.
The reason why I ask is that I find two search fields on my front end to be strange looking and illogical. One should be enough.
Second the “tags” drop down is eventually gonna be a mile long when I have 300+ items each with its own set of tags.
