  • Link that preselects category in advanced search

    I am using Zoom v7. Is it possible to set up a hyperlink that takes you to an advanced search page and preselects the category? I have a category set up as /Pedigrees*/ and would like to produce a text hyperlink to the advanced search page that automatically makes it the default category. I'm sure that there is no easy way, but thought I'd ask. Thanks.

    If you simply link to the search page (assuming you are using PHP, this would be "search.php") with the parameter "zoom_cat=1" (with the number changed to reflect the category), then it would be pre-selected.

    e.g. search.php?zoom_cat=1

      Ah, same as keyword searches only with a "cat" parameter. I didn't imagine it would be so simple. Thank you yet again, Ray, you're a gentleman.
