Hello !
I’d like to know if someone has some experience with developping a real estate website with Kirby. I’m quite new with Kirby, I think I understood the basics (and enjoyed the simplicity and power) but I wonder if I could run into some limitations when designing the property search and filter module, for instance?
Cheers,
Daniel
UPDATE:
This is the parameter search which I have announced:
http://smartphone-star.de/finder/category:smartphones
Check it out. : )
OLDER POST:
This is a small parameter search/filter for example. Works realy great:
I will design an other parameter search on http://smartphone-star.de for the device specifications. This will be a bit bigger. Partially it´s a bit tricky but it works…
Not real estate, but I designed a filtering/search system that includes filtering by location.
So, it is possible. Thanks tobias and sam for your real-world examples. Both of your websites are really inspiring! Now let’s build something…
Cheers,
Daniel
Keep us up to date about your project daniel. I´m interested in the result.
Looking forward to more complex Kirby sites! Let us know if you need help with any snags.
I worked with a Landscape Architecture firm to create this filtering system.
http://triadassociates.net/projects
The client loves using Kirby. After a quick demo, they were excited to get started and have had very few questions about how to use the CMS. They manage the content completely by them selves.
They have already uploaded more than 50 new projects. I actually didn’t anticipate them uploading so many projects and will probably have to go back in and add pagination.
Hope this helps,
Ian
Thanks, Ian. Very nice and clean website with great fonts. I’d also love to build something like that without relying (again) on WordPress.
Cheers,
Daniel
There’s a lot you can do using Kirby’s built-in filter() and filterBy() methods. I’m building a site right now that is a repository of a bunch of books, and browsing will be primarily through searches:
Then there are two ways I handle search queries - if a book contains a certain attribute (if it’s included in the Modern Library, for instance), and then, a basic filter. This allows for a lot of compound filtering.
The request is sent as a JSON object, via ajax, to a search script. This may be much more than what you’re looking for, but, I thought I’d post this here for anyone else to use / reference / critique:
<?php
define('DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
require($_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . DS . 'kirby' . DS . 'bootstrap.php');
$kirby = kirby();
$site = $kirby->site();
$params = $_POST;
$books = $site->pages()->find('writers')->children()->visible()->children();
function contains($str, array $arr) {
foreach($arr as $a) {
if (stripos($str,$a) !== false || $a = "none" && strlen($str) == 0) return true;
}
return false;
}
foreach ($params as $param => $param_array) {
switch($param) {
case "regions":
$books = $books->filter(function($book) use ($param_array) {
if (contains((string)$book->region(), $param_array)) {
return $book;
}
});
break;
case "languages":
$books = $books->filter(function($book) use ($param_array) {
if (contains((string)$book->language(), $param_array)) {
return $book;
}
});
break;
case "collections":
$books = $books->filter(function($book) use ($param_array) {
if (contains((string)$book->collections(), $param_array)) {
return $book;
}
});
break;
case "filter":
foreach($param_array as $filter => $filter_value) {
switch ($filter) {
case "min_pages":
$books = $books->filterBy('page_count', '>', $filter_value);
break;
case "max_pages":
$books = $books->filterBy('page_count', '<', $filter_value);
break;
case "min_decade":
$books = $books->filterBy('year_published', '>=', $filter_value);
break;
case "max_decade":
$max = ($filter_value == 'max') ? 200000 : $filter_value;
$books = $books->filterBy('year_published', '<=', $max);
break;
}
}
break;
}

Thanks SQBiz for pointing me into the right direction and providing some code. I’m sure it will help other Kirby users, too.
Cheers,
Daniel
Can you show template part of code? To understand how this form is working… I have similar filter system to do, but don’t have enough skills in code…
Hi @wildthing,
The template end of this is built to work with some javascript to work over AJAX - it’s not a straight up form. I think that posting all of it here wouldn’t be much of a help - honestly, it’s kind of a mess and I’d do it differently anyway. Do you have any specific questions?
I got a DM from another user asking about this code – here it is. The site this was built for is www.ripsguidetoliterature.com. Like I mentioned, there is a lot I would do differently if I were to build this again. I’ve learned a lot since putting this together. I wouldn’t recommend any kind of copy + paste to get this working in another situation. But, dig through and maybe this can be of some help.

Can you share, how do you create this filtering? It is looks great!!!
Can you share the code? How do you made multiple filtering?
Im stuck a little with this… 
I have Reviews controller
<?php
return function($site, $pages, $page) {
$reviews = $page->children()->listed()->sortBy('rating')->flip();
$params = params();
/* Search */
$search = urldecode(param('q'));
/* Categories */
$category = urldecode(param('category'));
/* Software */
$software = urldecode(param('software'));
/* License */
$license = urldecode(param('license'));
/* Currency */
$currency = urldecode(param('currency'));
/* Language */
$language = urldecode(param('language'));
/* Country */
$country = urldecode(param('country'));
/* Payment Methods */
$payment = urldecode(param('payment'));
if($search = get('q')) {
$reviews = $reviews->search($search, 'title|text');
}
if ($category) {
$reviews = $page->children()->listed()->filterBy('reviews_category', $category,',');
}
if ($software) {
$reviews = $page->children()->listed()->filterBy('gaming_software', $software,',');
}
if ($license) {
$reviews = $page->children()->listed()->filterBy('licenses', $license,',');
}
if ($currency) {
$reviews = $page->children()->listed()->filterBy('currencies', $currency,',');
}
if ($language) {
$reviews = $page->children()->listed()->filterBy('languages', $language,',');
}
if ($country) {
$reviews = $page->children()->listed()->filterBy('restricted_countries', $country,',');
}
if ($payment) {
$reviews = $page->children()->listed()->filterBy('payment_methods', $payment,',');
}
return compact( 'reviews', 'search', 'category', 'license', 'currency', 'language', 'country', 'software', 'payment');
};
And have template…

On this stage I can generate urls
in this way:
/reviews/category:Popular/software:Amatic
But can’t teach script to filter based on all selected params?
If I try something like that in controller… it gives empty results
$collection = $page->children()->listed()
->filterBy('reviews_category', $category,',')
->filterBy('gaming_software', $software,',')
->filterBy('licenses', $license,',')
->filterBy('currencies', $currency,',')
->filterBy('languages', $language,',')
->filterBy('restricted_countries', $country,',')
->filterBy('payment_methods', $payment,',');
$reviews = $collection;
I think, that something like that should be in cookbook), because many sites needs to filtering content based on few params and fields.
I know, that already ask and have idea to made all using query, and it works, but with params it have much better URL.
UPD------>>>
Found solution for correct filtering
$collection = pages();
if($search = get('q')) {
$collection = $reviews->search($search, 'title|text');
$reviews = $collection;
}
if ($category) {
$collection = $reviews->filterBy('reviews_category', $category,',');
$reviews = $collection;
}
if ($software) {
$collection = $reviews->filterBy('gaming_software', $software,',');
$reviews = $collection;
print_r($reviews);
}
if ($license) {
$collection = $reviews->filterBy('licenses', $license,',');
$reviews = $collection;
}
if ($currency) {
$collection = $reviews->filterBy('currencies', $currency,',');
$reviews = $collection;
}
if ($language) {
$collection = $reviews->filterBy('languages', $language,',');
$reviews = $collection;
}
if ($country) {
$collection = $reviews->filterBy('restricted_countries', $country,',');
$reviews = $collection;
}
if ($payment) {
$collection = $reviews->filterBy('payment_methods', $payment,',');
$reviews = $collection;
}I am interested in this as well! Working on a ‘simple’ filter but can’t get it working…
With Kirby 3, you can simplify filtering using the when() method:
