Hello,

My webstore has a large number of brands ranging across multiple child stores in Smith Cart. I created a page that has a list of our brands.

 

I was wondering If there was any way I could create a hyperlink that passes the brand name as a search term, and then displays the search term.

This way, if a user clicked on a brand, they would see all products available from that brand.

 

Thanks!

Alex

Hi Alex,

Currently, the product listing page doesnt support filtering products by passing a search term in the querystring.  However, the product listing page does support   filtering Products by Category by passing the category id in the querystring.

For example:
 
http://www.airsoftguns360.com/Home/tabid/38/Default.aspx?categoryid=1
 
When the category id is passed in the querystring the products will be filtered by category.  Following your example if you create categories as "brands", this will allow you to create your own separate brands or category page using the DNN Html module with links or images that filter your products by brand in Smith Cart.
 
Hope this helps!

Dang. Thats a great idea, but it wont work in my specific situation.

 

For my webstore any brand has products in multiple stores and categories. I could create a master brand category for each, and add the products to it one at a time, but that would be very time consuming.

 

Thanks anyways!

Alex
