Hi,

Alright then. I will convince my client to accept this.

Are you able to finish the customization by completing this one last thing:
– When user selects a category and clicks enter without typing anything in the search field, bring the user to the result page with all portfolios under that category.

Thanks!

Hi,

I understand and appreciate that you have given the discount to ease our operation. But I think that were some misunderstanding when we first discussed. I did not mention to search portfolios by selected category, but search portfolios titles AND portfolios category.

In reply #29056, I mentioned:
For example, if I search for a portfolio category, the search result will be whatever single portfolios that is in that category.

In reply #29119, I mentioned:
#3. Yeah I need the search function to be able to be searched by portfolio category and portfolio title(not including portfolio content/description/keywords).

I thought I was pretty clear with it when I put able to be searched by portfolio category and portfolio title as in they would be able to use the search function to search both category and title.

Since this is the situation now, I will discuss with my team and see how do they think first. In the meantime, can I request to do this one thing?
– When user selects a category and clicks enter without typing anything in the search field, bring the user to the result page with all portfolios under that category.

Hi,

Thanks I have tested the searching for product title it works fine.

But for the category, I didn’t expect it to be a dropdown. But instead just the same old search function design, when user types in something like modern or classic or contemporary, the portfolios that are in these categories will show up. Same goes with when user click on Enter to go to the search result page, the results should be everything that is under the relevant category.

I think this will be better than the current approach. Because the current approach that you implemented, the category must be selected and then only the portfolios in that selected category are shown. Additionally, when the category is selected and clicked on enter without anything typed in the search field, it brings to the search result page with everything in it.

That would defeat the purpose of letting user search for the style or type of portfolio they want.

If you are able to come down to $41.13, I will do the transfer by today.

If it is not possible, we will request from client but it will take quite some time as we will need to inform my client, prepare another invoice for it and for them to arrange the payment for the remaining $9.

Let me know 🙂
Thanks!

Hi,

I understand. Just earlier this week I have collected the payment of $41.13 from my client to extend theme support thinking that it could be fixed if I extend the theme support. So I am kind of in a predicament now to request once again.

So it would be great if you could separate into 3 costs for me:
1) extend theme support to address maybe the first and second point that you mentioned? – $41.13
2) to just do the Search portfolio only by title
3) to add search by portfolio category

Or you could also suggest what can be done with this $41.13.

Hi,

I would like to have the initial bug fixed first as they were from a previous ticket. In case you forgot, the search codes in my functions.php now is written by you previously.

The bugs are:
#1. when I search for one portfolio, all other irrelevant portfolios appeared (should just search for portfolio title, because it does not makes sense if I search for one portfolio, every result came out).

#2. when I hit enter on search, wrong url parameter post_type=product. The working one is post_type=portfolio, but the desired outcome should be post_type=product since the portfolio has been renamed to product on previous request.

After the bugs are fixed, we can proceed to the category customization. Also, I am just wondering that why couldn’t I extend the theme support license to continue to get support to finish this search function? Or does it has to be additional customization fee for it?

Please understand because actually I am trying to explain to my client the additional cost to top up to have this category search feature. But they are bugging about the current bugs not being fixed.

Thanks!

Hi,

#1. Then it might be reading the titles from the Related Projects section at the bottom of my single portfolio page. But I don’t want that tho, because that doesn’t make sense and it should search for just the matching title. How can I do that?

#2. May I ask where is the file that contains the function umimo_product_search located at? I could not find it in the parent theme.

#3. Yeah I need the search function to be able to be searched by portfolio category and portfolio title(not including portfolio content/description/keywords).

Do let me know how much would the customization fee be, or can I straight extend the theme support to receive these customizations?

Hi Billy, but if you look at the screenshot I sent there, I searched for meru valley but all portfolios showed up.

Another error is if I press enter on the keyboard in the search bar, it brings me to an error page. Apparently it is because that the parameter in the url is post_type=product and it should be post_type=portfolio. How can I fix this?

Can I ask for your assist on modifying the code so that it can search for single portfolio and portfolio category? For example, if I search for a portfolio category, the search result will be whatever single portfolios that is in that category.

Oh I think I found it, it is under Elementor Header & Footer Builder. Let me try it out first and update you here. Thanks

[hmkitchen]

As you can see, the link is incorrect and does not point to my website’s internal link.

[hmkitchen]

Alright, thanks Billy. Appreciate your help.
