I have just started using Umbraco 4.7 and was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of how to go about acheiving the following:
I would like to create a page whereby a logged-in website member can search other members based on 2 member properties (1 textstring, 1 member group). One will be a free text field and the other a dropdown populated by a list of the current member groups.
Public Member Search
Hi all,
I have just started using Umbraco 4.7 and was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of how to go about acheiving the following:
I would like to create a page whereby a logged-in website member can search other members based on 2 member properties (1 textstring, 1 member group). One will be a free text field and the other a dropdown populated by a list of the current member groups.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
s/.
I guess you've got a couple of options here:
- Perform a sql query to pull member data from the database using the specified properties (not recommended but would work)
- Create a new index set (or change the default member index set) and use Examine to search for members..
More info on using Lucene and Examine can be found on Codeplex.
Hope this helps.
