Display Search Keyword/Filter

Sean 11 May 2015 16:01 problem, complete

I've got Low Search working and filtering correctly, however I now need to display the filter on the results page.

What I have now is:

 
           {if segment_2==""} 
             All Branches 
           {if:else} 

             {exp:low_search:param:loop get="keywords" as="keywords" query="{segment_3}" format="raw"} 
               param{keywords} 
             {/exp:low_search:param:loop} 

              keywords{exp:low_search:keywords query="{segment_3}"}

 {/if} 
 

 
             {exp:low_search:form query="{segment_3}" result_page="{transcribe:language_abbreviation}/branch-locator/filter" form_id="region-filter" form_onchange='submit()'} 

                   {exp:channel:entries 
                     channel="regions" 
                     dynamic="no" 
                     orderby="title" 
                     sort="asc" 
                     disable="categories|member_data|pagination|custom_fields" 
                   } 
                   {if count=="1"}All ({total_results}){/if} 

                       {title} 

                   {/exp:channel:entries} 

             {/exp:low_search:form}

   If you want to display the keywords inside the Results, Form or Filter tag, you can just use {low_search_keywords}.
   
   If you want to display them outside those tags, you should be able to use the low_search:keywords tag.
   
   However, I can't see the HTML of your form tag, so you might not even have a keywords filter there. Can you re-paste your code? You can use http://pastie.org/ or http://pastebin.com/ for large chunks of code.
   
   Also, what's the encoded query for such a page?

   Low,
   
   The pastie is here: http://pastie.org/private/rwyd8xidn0h...
   
   the encoded query is a result of the second block which is creating the filter from a channel entries tag.
   
   Will send you a link to the dev site via email so you can better see what I mean. I may not be explaining it well.
   
   Appreciate your time/effort on this.

   As per your pastie, you're not using the Keywords filter, so you can't display keywords.
   
   You're using the parameter child:pl_branch_region to filter entries, so you can output its value using {low_search_child:pl_branch_region}. This will output the selected entry_id. If you need to output the title, feed it to a channel:entries tag.
