Hey Everyone,
We're interested in implementing search filter sets in our HTML5 help system, but I'm not sure if it will work in the way we need it to.
We have a product that has individual modules that can be purchased separately. But, collectively, the modules all belong to the main product. We want to create a single help system and assign one or more concepts to each topic. Then, we need users to be able to search across multiple concepts. Can the user multi-select concept values when initiating search?
So, for example:
If I have these topics:
Topic 1 - Module A
Topic 2 - Module A
Topic 3 - Module B
Topic 4 - Module B
Topic 5 - Module A and B
Topic 6 - Module C
Topic 7 - Module B and C
Can the user check check boxes for Module A and B and get search results including Topics 1-5 and 7?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Julie
Search filter sets for product lines
Re: Search filter sets for product lines
The user doesn't select the concept in the search - they select a filter.IPRO_JB wrote:Can the user multi-select concept values when initiating search?
A filter can be linked to one or more concept tags. So if your filter "Stuff" is linked to concepts "A" and "B", then selecting "Stuff" in the search would include topics 1-5 and 7.
The user can only select one filter in the search (not multiple).
Perhaps try it out in a test project first.
