Support Forum

Every time that you post a problem, PLEASE add the Joomla and the extension's versions and revisions (for example: Joomla 3.3.6, Contact Enhanced 3.3.5), PHP version and Server's Operating System. If you only manage only one site it is easier if you edit your profile and just add that information to your signature. Don't forget to add a detailed description of the problem. If possible, write down all steps to simulate the problem.

Before submitting a new post, PLEASE make sure you are running the latest version, test in different browsers (IE, FF, Chrome,..) and clear Joomla and browser's cache after every change you make.

Also, most questions are already answered in our FAQ and in iFAQ and Contact Enhanced documentation pages.

× Ideal Store Locator Plugin (iStoreLocator) works with Google Maps API which allows your website visitors to easily locate stores/contacts on the map.

Category filters within one map

7 years 8 months ago #21826 by FANtastic
Hi everybody,

before purchasing the StoreLocator I want to make sure that it also can display filters so that the users can choose wheter they want to search all categories of stores or just a specific category.

Our company has 5 different kinds of stores which should all be displayed within one map. Users should be able to filter (drop-down-menu) the category they want to have displayed.

Example: A company has fashion stores for men, women and kids. Users can choose wheter they search for all kinds of stores or just for men.

I checked your demo and the documentation but could not find out, if this is possible. :blink:

Thanks for your help.

Dear FANtastic,

Yes, it is possible! ;-)

I have added some information in the Plugin page about the Filter Groups and I've added the Filter to the demo page.
It is possible to display a list of tags (in checkboxes) which allow users to filter the locations by, displaying only locations that match the selected tags. If Marker Clusters option is enabled it will recalculate the markers in each cluster;

The source of the tags can be one of the following:
Name
Category Only available when using with Contact Enhanced Component
Metakey Meta Keywords
City
State
Country
Postcode
Tags Only available when using with Contact Enhanced Component


Let me know if you have any further question.

Best regards,
