Search Tools
Permalink
Hi all!
I'm proud to announce the Search Tools package is finally out! Check it out here:http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/search-tools/...
Basically it allows you to create page lists filtered by keywords and custom fields. It also allows you to create advanced search forms.
As a bonus you get a tag cloud, and a straight line proximity search based on zip codes (if you're lucky enough to have a good zip code database for your country)
Enjoy!

I purchased the search tools add-on today but am having trouble getting the zip code database to load. I went to the link you suggested for the zip codes but keep getting an error message when trying to upload the file. Can you please walk me through the process? Thank you. Heather Bryant
Hi Heather,
The zip code databases are quite large and may cause trouble under some installations. There are 2 ways to solve this, although I suspect the second one would be easier.
First option, if you are the server administrator is to increase php's memory allocation and the script's default timeout.
Second, is simpler. Open the csv file in a text Editor, and split it in 2 or 3 separate files. Then just upload each of the files individually and it should be fine.
Let me know how you go.
Regards,
Matias
