    Hi,
    How to add new search filter to show all listing from user/owner.
    It should be as a drop down menu contain users/owner names and when choose one it will show all listing created by this user/owner.
    For ex. If a visitor like to search all apartments for sale listing by a specific real estate agency, he/she should be able to choose he real estate agency name from a drop down menu contain all users(non-claimed)/owners (claimed) and the search results all listing created by that agency.

    Please advise.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Tt could be done with a custom select field.

    For example, you could add a CPT called properties, then, to that CPT add a custom field ‘agency’ and add the names of the agencies there, then select from them.

    Then you would use advance search to show that field as a select field in the search bar.

    Hello,
    How this suppose to be a solution??
    Do you think after adding CPT with agency I should go to each list and add the owner/user name in this CPT..I have over 600 listing ..Or you expect the user to do that…how it will look like if I ask user to add his own user name in a CPT each time he is adding a list?
    You should have search by user and retrieve all related listing as result.
    what i’m asking for is a basic search feature. Please provide a logic solution

    The way we do it is with Franchises or Linked Posts.

    Add CPT “Agency”
    Add CPT “Property”
    in proeprty CPT add “Link Posts: Agency”
    In tabs settings for Agency add “Link Posts from propert”

    That will show a list of all the agencies properties on their listing.

    Hello Alex,
    Thank you but this solution has nothing to do with search. Visitor should be able use the main search to search for agency (user/business owner) without the need to go in listing details and look for link posts. This as I mentioned a basic search function and it should be add as filter in search bar. Still waiting for solution

    Hello,

    Sorry to disappoint you but these are the options that are currently available.

    I will take your idea up as a suggestion, a ‘Parent Post Title Dropdown’ that would return/filter linked posts. The developers always consider adding popular requests.

    However, at this time the idea would require your own customization.

    Hello Abdelaziz,

    Linked posts widget has link “View All” which redirects to search page to list all the linked listing. Searching already working with &linked_from_post=POST_ID and &linked_to_post=POST_ID, but it not added in search form. We have already a todo to enhance searching with this feature.

    Regards,
    Kiran
