Category based search - magento-1.7

I am using the mini search in my sites header and it only works partially.. Here\’s the problem:
When I search a product name, it will only find the product when i supply the corresponding category id.
This does NOT work:
/index.php/catalogsearch/result/?q=searchterm
This DOES
/index.php/catalogsearch/result/?cat=123&q;=searchterm
This is what I am trying to achieve:
I want the searchform to always search within every category, without using the $_GET[\’cat\’] variable.
Would really appreciate some help here, because it\’s practically driving me crazy..

I got solution I had combine quick search and advance search by using if else condition if text box is clicked search will be redirect to quick search action if category dropdown is select search will be redirect to advance search

Please check on there are some extension or some code is modify.Else root category is not working

You can follow this:
How to create complicated content elements
or this:
How to create simple content elements
or the official documentation:
Documentation
Regardless what you choose, you need to be aware of the following: In order to create a custom content element you need time to understand how it works patience and do some experiments. Once you understand the process and create 5-10 elements, then all will come automatically to you :)

Category listing in magento2 in custom page

I wanted to create a custom page having all categories listed with checkbox and on click of that products should get filtered. Can anybody suggest how to go about it?
Just as an idea:
We are using Multiple Select in Layered Navigation von Manadev. There you get a Category filter which you may use.
Otherwise you may have a look at a Collection Filter as described here.
It would be quite easy to get a select with all your categories with category_id as option. Then you built your request.

Add a Filter for Date Range option in a list

Here is a little background on the task:
My client has a sharepoint site that has a list of data. One of the columns or fields is a date field, this date is entered manually using MM/DD/YY Format.
My client has requested me to add an option where they could filter the columns by a range of dates on the webpart view.
I read this guide: https://www.nothingbutsharepoint.com/sites/eusp/pages/sharepoint-list-filtering-by-date-range.aspx and i got it to work, but it seems to be a bit buggy, meaning that sometimes the list will not get filtered by the specified dates..
Another issue with this method is that there is no Submit/Go button.
FROM: [ Text Field ] TO: [ Text Field ] [GO Button]
My client would love to have something like the example above where there are two text fields next to each other and a button that they can click to make the filter activate.
I searched for hours and hours and was not able to find something like this.
Do you guys know of a solution and if so, provide me with a link or guide, on how to achieve this problem? Thanks
EDIT:
It seems that there is a Apply Filters Button Web Part that does what i need. I added it and it seems to work Okay. I have to click Apply Filters TWICE in order for it to work.. weird huh? is there a fix for that?
FYI: i followed the guide linked above and just added the apply filters button.
Okay i fixed it,
It was because i was adding the date filter web parts to the library itself, and i was supposed to create a page for it and add my web-parts in there.
Found a solution that'll load the filters on first click for me.
In SPD, under the web part that displays the list items (XsltListViewWebPart), change these two to "True":
ClientRender="True" and IsClientRender="True"
Similar issues mentioned in this thread gave insights to button load sequences and why it doesn't render results on the first click.

Swift - Problems following & unfollowing users when searched via UISearchController [Parse]

Good Afternoon,
Today I am having some issues with parse.
I have created a UISearchController, loaded my users from parse so I can search for individual ones and I have added a following and unfollowing feature.
My Problem is when I search for a specific user and try to follow him: So I search for a specific user say "test" it shows up as it should, but when I click follow and then go back to parse to see if "I" have followed test I can a different result.
It says I have followed for example "tester" which was the first user created. Its seeming to follow the Cell and now the userId...
After that I manged to get the users in alphabetical order, but same problem here except it follows the first user in alphabetical order for example if I have a username that begins with an "A"!
I'm not sure how to fix this issue, so I'm hoping someone here does..I accept and appreciate all kind of tips and answers!
You need to check if the UISearchController is active inside of didSelectRowAtIndexPath. Right now you are only selecting from the users array instead of from the searchResults array.
I also highly recommend refactoring your code away from using objectIds and use pointers. It is much easier to query against and work with pointers rather than directly accessing their objectIds.
Here's a link to another question that I've previously answered where I give a complete example of using a UISearchController to search by usernames in Parse.. Hope this helps!

Design ideas for multi-select items from a long list

I'm developing a system in which I need to select, from a long list os customers, some to which an specific (batch) action will be executed. For example, I want to select "John", "Peter" and "Steve" and click the "delete" button. No more than 5 customers will be selected.
The problem is that, since there're more than 500 customers, listing all isn't a good option. So far I did an AJAX search that shows just the customers that meet the criteria, but which multiselect way you recommend?
My best idea so far is a below this list in which I could either drag-and-drop the users I want to select or double click them
Any better ideas/examples?
Thanks
I don't know whether you're using jQuery, nor whether your site's design vocabulary is suited to it -- but this jQuery autosuggest plugin is excellent.
+1 for ksr's autosuggest find. I would use this in conjunction with a list box. The user types in the autosuggest input field and when they select an item it adds it to a list box. They can then add additional names via the same method, and submit the list when they've added all the names.
I would go for the pattern used by eBay. They probably did some usability research. You can find more info here: http://quince.infragistics.com/Patterns/Multiple%20Selection%20from%20a%20Large%20List.aspx
