    I’m looking to do something like this with Expression Engine (http://www.raymore.com/Search.aspx).

    After you search for something, the results are grouped by Channel. Each channel has limited results as well as it’s own pagination. Is there any way to do this with Expression Engine?

    I have tried using the “Search Results” add-on which allows me to group results by Channel, but doesn’t allow for Channel limiting or pagination. I tried to hack together some PHP to work in conjunction with this add-on but the way it loops makes it impossible.

    Any ideas? Anyone encountered this before?

    Maybe Super Search?

    hmmm, I’m not sure that type of functionality is available at the moment. Super Search is good for narrowing down search parameters, but still has a lot of flaws when it comes to outputting results. I don’t really think it’s worth the money.

    Obviously one could create a custom solution, but you need to be a PHP rockstar to do that…
