Hello EE Gurus,

I need some help with Events form customization.
http://ellislab.com/expressionengine/user-guide/modules/search/advanced.html#channel
This page unfortunately doesn’t give me all the info I need.

Please see attached screen shot.

In this scenario I am using advanced search on one channel.  In the tab CHANNELS multi-select forum I have 2 options, ANY CHANNEL or PUBLISH BLOG. The Categories on the right of it will only show the categories after I select PUBLISH BLOG. Since I am using ONLY 1 channel, is there a way to get rid of - OR show only the PUBLISH BLOG channel without the any channel option?

Thanks in advance.

Vlad

Another thing I would like to do is show categories as check boxes rather than select and option.

I have attached the design for the advanced search feature. Please let me know if this is doable… or if not is there an add on that does this.

Thank you,
Vlad

Hello Vlad,

Thank you for posting your question here on the ExpressionEngine forums.

I believe you could hard code the channel ID in order to show just one. Like so.

<div class="defaultBold">{lang:channels}</div>

<select id="12" name='name_here' class='multiselect' size='12' multiple='multiple'>
{channel_names}
</select>

As far as showing checkboxes, you would just use checkbox instead of select.

Building out an Advanced Search Form is a bit beyond technical support, so I am going to move this over to the Community Help Forum to see if some of the community can help you with building your form.

Cheers,

Hi Shane, are there any notes on it? Anywhere I can get this info? Because if not customer support about customizing the native functions then whom?
