Search Plugin

Hello All

Does someone knows a search plugin for Modx Revolution? Something that makes possible search items likethe example on this link:

Many thanks in advance.

Take a look at SimpleSearch, for me it does wonderful job .

I don’t think SimpleSearch will do what you want, at a minimum because it doesn’t handle searching TVs. Writing search forms is a tricky business because searches can be extremely customized in how they handle terms (e.g. search this column in the database, but not that one, and only this third one if bla bla bla). Google is so common, but it represents some fantastically complex and intelligent crunching to translate what you type into results. To emulate the example you referenced, you’d presumably need to search through multiple TVs to get the values you wanted... this relates a bit more to Taxonomies, so you might be a bit closer to what you need by checking out the various tagging snippets/TVs and then going from there.

Hmmmm, after Everett’s post I think I didn`t get whan legues meant (I just took a look on search field on the top of example site), but if it’s more about conditional query it`s easier than coding a search tool. If you want to make more like a hatching tool from proper table/tables (show me items that are ok with my conditions) than instead of searching, think more about query filtering.
I`m not sure if you will find plugin for that, but you can code one .

Right -- that’s what I meant. SimpleSearch is good for simple queries to find pages that contain certain text in their content or titles. Beyond that, you may need to code your own search snippet. Taxonomies offer a way to aid searches, so if you could have a page that listed all pages that had been tagged with "Colorado" etc., that essentially accomplishes the same thing as a traditional search.

Thanks a lot for all your comments/sugestions!!
Yes, i pretend more a filter than a search tool. I was wondering use AjaxSearch, but i´m not sure if it works on Modx Revolution.

Maybe i could use for example Taglister with GetResources as this example, what do you think guys?

I´m not sure, but i guess taglister can work with this value &includeTVs=`1`... if yes, maybe i can filter and push information from a group of resources!!!!

Yes, i want my search based on specific TV´s... not in text.

Yes, that tagLister example is pretty close to what you need, i think.

Can i use value &includeTVs=`1` on Taglister snippet?
