Using additional fields in search

[thegrape]

That's great i can see what you mean and I think that would work. The field where in your example you can select multiple items, could that be a free form field?

The idea being that you could type whatever labels you want separated by a comma.

In the forum display page it will sparate these items into individual links(filters) and allow you to search on them, rather than having to predefine them?

Finally, and this is a bit optimistic, could that field be dynamic enough using something like AJAX to be able to use predictive text if you start to type previously used tags?  Alternatively, field which gives you the option to select commonly used 'tags'

If you don't ask.....!
