Hide all seach field before category select?

Hi,

Is there anyway if we can hide and only show relevant search fields after users chose category in advanced search page?

In a listing type lets say for sale, we have multiple categories for example: car and house

in Car we have:
- model
- model year
- ODO

in house we have:
- bedroom
- bathroom
- year built

If we list all the above listing fields in advanced search page we will have a full pages with:

- model
- model year
- ODO
- bedroom
- bathroom
- year built
---> If long and confusing, and sometimes users input model year (car) and year built (house) at the same time and hit search.

Can we ask users to choose a category first then show relevant fields below, if they chose car then page will show only:
- model
- model year
- ODO

Thanks

Hello Wei,

There is definitely no a quick solution

but if you need I can point you to a file where you can add your custom code for hiding/enabling fields:

templates > your_template > components > cascading-category > _cascading-category.js > inside the block this.$selectors.change(function(){
