Search #announcement fstdt.com blog

Search View:

The re-worked search will include a number of new features on top of what should promise to be a considerably faster searching algorithm. Any new filters are followed with an asterisk

Filters include:
Quote Author
Quote Location
Quote URL*
Quote Content
Quote Year*
Quote Month*
Quote Tag*

Comment Author
Comment Content
Comment Year*
Comment Month*

Any quotes matching all of the entered filters will be displayed as a Quote Details listing. If any comment filters are used then the earliest matching comment will be displayed directly under it's related quote, with a link to a view featuring a listing of all comments matching the search filters which displays the count of matching comments. Each listed comment will include a link to it's location within the Quote Comment Listing.

Yay, something different finally! Sort of, I'm still lifting most of the display from other parts of the site. Let nothing bad be said about code reuse or display templates. That said, I'm debating a few parts of this still, the date filters on comments are a big one. Not sure if I should let them be used without Author or Content specified, but odds are someone could find a use for that anyway. Further, listing more than one matching comment so it's less likely that people have to dig into the Search Comment Listing, it's possible, but I'm torn on where the cut off should be. So for right now I'm putting it at one as that is by far the easiest number to deal with and still keep the comments in the page.

The last outstanding bit of site theory is the Quote Comments pages. I should hit that mid week.
