Been googling for ages to try and find something

Is there any way or hack that I can implement so that images can be shown in search results

 

It's critical for a properties site that I am making

 

Please help!

 

Kind regards

mod_k2_tools, set "Search" and try to style it as you want.

 

How many columns do you want ? Intro, just Title ? Something else ?

Hi, thanks for reply

Sorry I should said, I'm using the extra fields search from Joomlart as I need to to be able to offer drop down choices as well otherwise I would have used the k2 tools one

 

Site is here

www.farmhousesaleslemarcheitaly.co.uk/

If you set province in the search to Fermo, then 2 results are returned, I need to be able to display the images next to them.

 

Mamy thanks

Do you testing something ?

There are some image frames.

Yeah I tried a hack from the joomlart forums.

Which modded the default_results.php file in com_search and added this

 

<img src="<?php echo $result->image; ?>" alt="<?php echo $result->title; ?>" title="<?php echo $result->title;?>" width="100px" height="100px"/>

the result class is empty though and isn't returning an image though

I guess this is all means getting further into how K2 and the standard Joomla search work together

Thanks

As i see it in K2 settings, images in search listings are supported.

 

Fast, not as you want it, in Joomla com_search.

 

But, i cannot get images to show in search listing.

Hello! i've found a solution:

 

You have the search mod which is searching in the table.

Located:  plugins/search/jak2_filter.php

It has the SQL query with binary search, you have to add the id field to the selected list:

In the 231. line oyou have to add the id field name:

$query = "            SELECT i.id,            i.title,            i.metadesc,

 

 


Now, you can go and edit the result lister tamplate:

/templates/gk_mystore/html/com_search/search/default_results.php

After the result cycle,

<?php foreach ($this->results as $result) : ?>

You can add the image generation based pn the id and md5() hash:

<?php            $row = './media/k2/items/cache/'.md5("Image".$result->id).'_S.jpg';            if(file_exists($row))            echo "<img src=\"$row\">";?>

 

And woala, the images right there!
