Feature Request - Native Search & Filter

Beta
#1

Hi Charlie,

On a couple of sites I have been using a plugin called Search & Filter (similar to FacetWP). It has some great features, but I can’t help feeling that this is something which could be done better natively within Cornerstone using loopers. One of the issues I have with Search & Filter is that it cannot handle large datasets, as its indexer cannot cope.

In one example, we have a CPT which uses a combination of categories and ACF Pro fields for the filtering, providing the results in an Archive Layout.

What are your thoughts about creating a similar feature for Cornerstone? Details and examples in the Secure Note.

Thanks,
Christopher

We are currently working on native forms for Cornerstone this year. Being able to filter with said forms is apart of the project as well. Have a great weekend.

I had assumed the CS Forms was an all singing-and-dancing contact form type of feature (very cool in its own right!). If it is also a potential search and filter mechanism, that is off the scale!!:rocket:

Does this fit with the scenario I have in the pages I sent in the SN?

Have a great weekend yourself.
