    Hello,

    I want to add a number of buttons which will automatically link a user to search in a specific area.

    For example, I have a nice image of South London on my home screen, and when a user clicks on the image I want it to search for all categories in and around that area.

    Could you please tell me how to do this?

    Thanks,
    Joe.

    Hi,

    the easiest way would be to use the search form to perform the search that you want. Copy the URL of the search page result and use it as the link for your image.

    Let us know how it goes,

    Thanks

    OK, this was my workaround but its not optimal as it performs a search from a specific postcode. Rather I was hoping for something like the homepage map widget that shows all results in a given area.

    I assume this is not possible?

    Thanks,
    Joe.
