Hello, We are building a website for a car dealership. We have created a content type for inventory which allows the administrator of the website to enter in individual vehicles as inventory.
Now we would like to add a feature where a client can search through the inventory. For example, if a client wants to see all cars that are made by Honda, or if a client wanted to search for cars withing a particular price range. Ideally we would like to be able to display the search results with views, but can hard code the page to display the different nodes if necessary.
I understand that I am going to have to make a custom form. From what I understand, the best way to go about this is to take what the client inputted, and use that information to get the form to query the database, then display the nodes which match the criteria. However, I am a little fuzzy about the details. Has anyone set up anything like this before, or does anyone have any advice on the best way to go about doing something like this?
Thanks for any and all help! Kelly
