Range field + filter

I'm also open to posibility if you can create it for a quote...

There is digits field. It has range filter.

Can I assign min and max value for input? And how to do input from-to? I just see one text input field in form.

The displayed filter range is determined by the lowest/highest values in all submitted records. On submission you just enter 1 value. The limit of your value is only restricted by the number of "digits". i.e. 9, 99, 999, 9999 etc.

Currently, there is no other input restriction, nor validation. But it can be accomplished by a custom field input template, IMHO.

FYI - Some time ago, i have created this topic about min/max values and input style ;)

• Digits field - step entry - spinner - min max

pepperstreet On submission you just enter 1 value.

That's the issue for me. I need min max option in submission form so I'm still open for quotes...

Anybody interested?

I added those parameters to field. Available with the next update.

PS: Maybe a good idea to include input templates as well. i.e. slider

• jQueryUI is already used in filter template. Could be an alternative default input template.
• Apart from examples in my related topic, i found this interesting jQuery plugin: noUIslider, maybe lighter? No need for the jQueryUI lib!

@Sergey you mean there will be from-to options in input form?

there will bee max min value parameters in field parameters.

With todays release this should be possible. But how to enter 2 values (range) in submission form? All in one input?

In submit form you enter only one value. For example price. ANd then based on all values min and max created in filter.

I thought we are talking (in this topic) about entering 2 values in submision form :). So min value input and max value input and then filter will give you results from anything in between.

So I still need this developed and I'm asking again if anybody will do it for a quote? I need it urgently!

Confused. What type of data are your values? I understand, you want to input and store a value range... in one field. But for what purpose? And how would you compare different records with different ranges in advanced search?

Specific example. I'm doing a site about aquaristic and there are different organisms to display. One of the parameter for organisms is pH value which has to be filterable. One organism can have a range of pH value, let's say from 4,9pH to 5,7pH (so 4,9 and 5,7 and all values in between).

Idea is to have 2 inputs, min and max value. Everything in between has to be done automatically. So in submission form you insert min and max value and save. When you look at record you get 4,9-5,7pH as result.

When you filter there are also 2 inputs or range slider. You choose values.

If you choose:
5,0-5,2 it display this result
4,1-7,3 it also display result
5,8-6,7 it does not display result

I think it could be done with 2 select fields and with custom filter template but I don't know php so well to be able to do this.

Any suggestions would be apreciated.

Then you can create to digit fields. One for minimum and one for maximum. And you will have to range fliter like Select Minimum Ph fron 3-4 and maximum from 5-6.

Sergey And you will have to range fliter like Select Minimum Ph fron 3-4 and maximum from 5-6.

I don't get it how this will work. What about if range is bigger, for ex. from 3,9-7,5 (users don't know what the values are). And I think having 2 range filters will be confusing for users. Can I somehow merge two digits fields just for filter so that I have only one filter?

klox7 Can I somehow merge two digits fields just for filter so that I have only one filter?

not possible even with custom coding. Only if you create custom field that allow eneter ranges.

@pepperstreet you could also use such a field for "opening hours" for example.

klox7 @pepperstreet you could also use such a field for "opening hours" for example.

I got the idea, thanks. ;-)

I guess, it is not a big problem to input and store such values. It could be just the 2 min/max values, or even the calculated range of all values. In either way, you will get a multi-value field.

I see an issue on the filter part. Because you want to search a "range" in a huge amount of other ranges. This gives many comparisons and possible end-results. No idea how to solve it.
