Custom filters

[digitalcow]

Eric, having got the custom filter widgets working well, as per your example thread, I have a question about how well I could filter with them.

I am thinking of developing a lapto store using datafeedr and would like to use the normal custom filters such as brand, colour and price etc. I am interested in creating additional filters for hdd size, ram size, screen size and so forth. Is there enough data in the database to be able to do this?

I see a number of the products mention their specs in the product descriptions, would the filter be able to pull this data or is it based only on tags and titles?

thanks

I don't know if this is going to be possible because those size fields are not stored in their own column in the database. You would only be able to target them using a keyword filter (word=256 RAM).
