PHP querys in TXP¿?

mlarino · 2010-01-27 16:14:52

Hi,
I am making a site using a bunch of custom fields.
A programmer is going to make the search query for me, searching in the database to get the results, but my question is.

If he makes the rendering of these results in html, is this outside textpattern or inside? can I use txp:tags in that rendering output?
How can I do this?

Its a realestate website, and I will be making searches for houses.
The houses will appaer as thumbnail images and little descriptions that then you click and open the full article.

Can someone help me?
thanks!!!!

You mean you’re not using smd_query?! :-o

The results come back into the plugin’s container and therefore you can format them however you like, directly. And you can also paginate the results in the plugin using a special form.

A few people have done real estate searches before (like this) but that’s just srcatching the surface of what’s possible. If you want any specific help, post some more specific questions about what you’re trying to do — e.g. how the user is going to interact with the queries to get what they want, what you want them to see, etc — and someone will try and help.

Also, you can investigate wet_haystack, that adds the possibility of searching on custom fields.
