Hi,
Following my last post on fabrik filters... we thought that it may be the right time to look for a better navigation through lists (well we've been thinking of it for 2 years now).
For us, the best solution, would be to use faceted navigation based on filters params.
Ex : I have a trip list and would like to have 2 filters : countries and departure month.
I would set the 2 fields to show as filters and I would get this 2 filters on the list with checkboxes :
Countries
Country 1 (2 trips)
Country 2 (5 trips)
Departure month
Month 1 (1 trip)
Month 2 (6 trips)
...
-> we only show filters that have at least 1 result
-> when we select a filter value, the list is reloaded with AJAX and the filters calculation is re-done (filters with no result disappears)
-> ideally, the filters variables are added to the page url onclick (so that we can share the filtered list and use the browser back button)
-> we can still use fabrik filtering through url
-> we have to find a way that it works with pagination or get rid of pagination and load following rows with AJAX (for example with a link "load following x rows" at the bottom of the first x rows)
Would it be doable with fabrik current filter system ? With another standalone dev ?
How much work would it needs ?
We can pay for custom work (if someone is interested, we can share the dev costs).
Thanks,
