Top right hand search missing current area #15

Closed scd closed 14 years ago

scd commented 14 years ago

The top right hand search field is missing the current focus area as a search option.

I think we should also consider adding the full ancestor heirachy and shortcuts???

Use case:

  1. You area at a climb and want to search for another climb in the area.
  2. You fail to find what you want in one search area, you can expand the search to the parent node.
  3. You want to quickly look up a climb in one of your shortcut areas

Also, I struggled to get a nice trigger for starting the search. I ended up triggering when the pulldown list was selected. You have changed that to trigger when you hit the return button. I'm not really concerned with which way we do it as long as it is intentional. Maybe we could put a small go button there?

As always I turn to flickr for inspiration. I'll model the actual search box of theirs. Their search choices are:

Everyone's Uploads From Your Contacts From Your Friends Your Photostream Groups Flickr Members For a Location Applications

Translating that into thecrag might be:

Mini hierarchy: Current Crag (not area) Current country Whole world

If logged in Your country Your favorite crags

Random ideas (probably overkill) From your friends favorites From my logged ascents

We should also have an adavnced search choice at the bottom which we can use to filter by grade, style etc.

Current area has been added back in.

For now this bug is fixed. If we really want expanded search we'll make it another issue.
