Button search

Hi Ken,

Yu can use javascript, but you still need a form to submit your data or jump to your table from your javascript function. I slightly changed your javascript function to jump to your table page.

function favGenre() {
	let mylist = document.getElementById("myList");
	window.location.href = "/your-page-containing-the-shortcode/?wpda_search_column_???" + mylist.options[mylist.selectedIndex].text;
}

You need to make sure that you jump to the correct page and add the correct column name. So replace “your-page-containing-the-shortcode” with the page where you have your table and change the ??? in wpda_search_column_??? with the correct column name.

Does this work?

Hi Ken,

I definitely agree we have a communication problem! 😂 If we want to solve this issue, we need to have a test page. Can you make your code available on a test page so I can see what you have and what’s going wrong? Maybe we can find a solution from there…?

Thanks,
Peter

Hi Ken,

I was waiting for your test page… 😉

A working demo of a search form can be found here:
https://wpdataaccess.com/publication-search-form-demo/

But I understood from your posts you didn’t get it to work. So my suggestion to you was to make your test page available so we can have a look at your test page together and hopefully find a solution…

Can you make your test page available and send me the url? You can use the contact form on the plugin website if you prefer to send it in private.

Thanks,
Peter
