Hey, Mark - would you mind pasting your code for your form, and the snippet call? Just need to look for clues as to why mine doesn’t work.

Thanks.

I’ve already pasted the snippet call above and I do not use a form, I append my testing params to the URL string directly.

Hey, Mark, I’m a little desperate here, site launches on Thursday - can I hire you to troubleshoot this ditto call? it’s all I need to wrap this up. Pretty sure you can fix it in no time. Let me know if this arrangement is possible, so I can send you access details.

Thanks.

Sure, I’ll take a look. P.M. with details.

This is an aside, but I can;t find it anywhere in teh forums - in my dropdowns above, I have a choice that says "Show all" - how do I choose all the tags?

This is what I tried:

<option value="tvProductCategory,Outdoor Seating,Indoor Seating,Bar Stools,Dining Table Bases,Table Tops,Lounges/Ottoman/Cubes/Drums,Coffee Tables,7">
Show me all
</option>

Or this:

<option value="tvProductCategory,*,7">
Show me all
</option>

And this:

<option value="tvProductCategory,Outdoor Seating|Indoor Seating|Bar Stools|Dining Table Bases|Table Tops|Lounges/Ottoman/Cubes/Drums|Coffee Tables,7">
Show me all
</option>

My debug output just says no filters are being applied.

How do you execute a wildcard in a Ditto call?

value="content,foo" should do the trick.

I put this in:

<option value="content,*">
Show me all
</option>

And got this output (returned all items, disregarded the filters in the other dropdowns):

Yes, I tried that -

<select title="Range" id="rangefilter" name="ditto_filter_1">
<option value="content,foo">
Show me all
</option>
...

This is the generated url:

http://example.com/index.php?ditto_filter_1=content%2Cfoo&ditto_filter_2=content%2Cfoo&ditto_filter_3=content%2Cfoo\
&ditto_filter_4=tvTagsStackable%2CYes%2C7&ditto_filter_5=tvTagsWarrantee%2C%3E+12+months%2C7&ditto_filter_6=tvTagsPriceGuide%2C1%2C7&id=63\
&hiddenTVs=ProductCategory%2CTagsFinish%2CTagsColour%2CTagsStackable%2CTagsWarrantee%2CTagsPriceGuide&depth=1&sortDir=ASC

I tried it on one dropdown and 3 dropdowns. The results say No entries found. Debug mode is on.

Great work Kudo in this latest beta.
Tested with 0.9.5 Ditto 1.1 beta 2 and a "search form" with two dropdown and works great! wink
