Hello,
I want to combine two search fields into one.
These both:
<input class=“input_xxlarge” type=“text” name=“title” value=”” /> <input type=“submit” name=“submit” value=“Search” />

<input class=“input_xxlarge” type=“text” name=“name” value=”” /> <input type=“submit” name=“submit” value=“Search” />

I already tried various combinations for name=“name”  and name=“text”
like
name=“text|name” or name=“text&name;” or name=(“text”,”name”)
but nothing works.

Is it possible to combine these parameters or I have to change it somewhere else ? (f.e. in the Search function)

Thanks and best regards
Robert

Hello BerlinBob,

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

I am not sure I understand what you are trying to accomplish.

I see two inputs, so you want to be able to search for both title and name? That is going to be accomplished with just one input anyway.

Can you clarify a bit?

Thank you,

Hello Shane

Yes i want to be able to search for both title and name in just one Input.

If i search in the name-Field for the tiltle it dosent work.
The same the other way arround.

The search works only with one category.

Maybee you can help me to combine the both.

Thanks
BerlinBob

Hey BerlinBob,

It sounds like you may want to go with a more advanced search. Maybe even use Google search since it’s free. Devot://ee has several options as well. The simple form is just that, very simple!

Is there anything else I can do to help?

Thank you,
