I got search box to appear, but when it’s loaded, it’s already displaying available records. How can I make it so that search box comes up without any record showing until they run the search?
I used: [pdb_list search=”true”]
Nvm, your other notes has all info needed for this.
Thank you! this is a great plugin!
hello Xnau,
I did send an email but I realize that hitting reply on my email only send my mail to a no-reply
Simply stated all I need to know is how to install a multi choice check-box for the specialty. field : (which is the MAIN interest in my search form.
http://snapps.riverviewproject.com/?page_id=240
In the actual form, visitors don’t know what particular “specialties” any member pet service provider has to offer and they might type it wrong.
That is why I need to add a check-box for “specialty”under the search form “select”
[pdb_list search="true" sort="true" CSS="members" orderby="company" fields="company, area, zip,<strong> specialty,</strong> pet_sitting, first_name, last_name, phone, status" display_count="true"]
Is this possible? How should I proceed?
thank you again
Pierjean
Ps
I found your page http://xnau.com/work/wordpress-plugins/participants-database/pdb-templates/ and followed your instruction.
I did copy the pdb-search-default.php and pdb-single-default.php files into a custom My_theme directory inside wp-content but I do not know enough of PHP to go any further.
I opened the pdb-search-default.php into WP appearance editor but my knowledge stops here.
Could you guide me into this?
I am retired with low income so I cannot hire a pro to do this for me.
I did wanted to do my home work before soliciting for help so I have been studying/ experimenting non-stop for a month+,
I made some progress but I cannot find anywhere how to finish this with baby steps.
I am sure you are a very busy person, from a newbie point of view I think you did a tremendous job into creating this plug-in and explaining things in detail. your search form help me get my first positive result after trying so many plug-ins.
But I am really stuck at this point….would really appreciate your help
Thank you

I felt this would be better handled over email, but I’ll respond here.
What you want to do will require you have a good handle on how HTML forms work. The plugin isn’t set up to do this, so you’ll need to create a custom search form. So as you might guess that’s more in-depth than I really have time to get into in this forum.
If you understand the data the search form is collecting in order to perform the search, you can successfully replace the search form with one of your own creation, just be sure it has all the same named input fields. You can even copy the HTML output to give you a starting point for your own search form. Replace the text input with your dropdown, and you will have a working search form with a dropdown instead of a text input.
A custom plugin template is the best way to implement your custom form.
I understand. I’ll try that, Thank you
