Hi
I need some support with Hierarchical Select module integration.
See: http://drupal.org/project/hierarchical_select
The issue I have is integrating it into a custom search I am building.
Does anyone know of easier to understand documentation than exists with the module?
Thanks,
Andy


Hi Bevan Yeah, that's the

Hi Bevan
Yeah, that's the one. What I'm after is someone who has successfully implemented this module. Wim's too busy to help.

Just to close off this discussion: If anyone's interested, this helped me:
http://www.lullabot.com/articles/custom_search_forms_views_and_fastsearc... (although it has nothing to do with Hierarchical Select (HS) - it helped me use HS within a new customised form.

Originally I was looking for someone who maybe had knowledge of using the HS module (I'm building a search like on TradeMe Jobs - when someone selects an option in the dropdown it affects subsequent options, like for location etc) Anyway, I achieved this using the above article to create a customised search - and by utilising modules "Views", "Views Fastsearch" and "Hierarchical Select" it worked a treat ( incorporating HS as demoed on http://wimleers.com/demo/hierarchical-select ).

Maybe this might help anyone else who is interested in HS and has been struggling with it.

Thanks!

Cheers for posting the follow-up. We're interested, looks like solving something that's been parked a while waiting for an answer to float in on the breeze :)
