Thread: Search by distance

  1. #1

    Search by distance

    The logic regarding this addon is wrong. Please adjust it so that it works properly.

    When a user is searching for something, he wants to find results for a specific product. Becouse that is what he is looking for. Like a car. He doesn't want to get 1000-10.000 ads from paper, pencils to crane or houses when all he wants is just a car.

    So, if we have this block added in left column, in each type of categories, and a user is using it, he MUST GET only listings from the category from wich he used the search by distance block.

    Hi

    I'm a new customer and this is my first post, i just wanted to say i totally agree with you, specific item search should be bound to the distance, just like how gumtree does it.
    http://www.gumtree.com.au which is at the top.

    Hello Viktor. Ideal would be to update the addon or at least post here the instructions so all users can benefit. What you say? Thanks

    I have raised this idea before and it was turned down. It would be best if Viktor could update the plugin since this is a really a must-have option or post instruction here. I'm totally support it with both hands.

    Hello All,

    I want to clarify something. I said:

    for this text:
    So, if we have this block added in left column, in each type of categories, and a user is using it, he MUST GET only listings from the category from wich he used the search by distance block.
    But if you want it like on site: http://www.gumtree.com.au it will not free because needs many changes and take many times.
    Thanks for understanding.

    i can show another example http://olx.ro/abrud/?search%5Bdist%5D=30&q=laptop
    everyone sees this function as it should except flynax.

    i do realise as well that flynax needs to release incomplete and buggy addons/script becouse let's be honest, you make money from fixing/making them functioning as they should from the beginning. If you would do them properly from begining, your incomes will be reduced...

    anyway, the initial thread was not about the search in header like in your example or mine. it was about the search by distance functionality (not working as it should) when yo have it as block in left/right column. so, can it be fixed or we should uninstall the addon? thanks
