I am very thankful for such a wonderful plugin, However like most of us I don’t actually have much programming skills. My requirement is to have pre-configured tags in a dropdown list to provide an extra filter in almost the same way as you have done.
There are two parts to it, as I understand. The DWQA plugin and the tags permanent links?
Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated.
Best regards,
Guru

Hello Guru !
To resolve this issue. Please do as following:
If you want to create the “Select a Category” that looks like on my demo. You can log in to Dashboard > DW Q&A > Question Categories.
See the screenshot: The “Select a Product” on our site is actually Tags. You can log in to Dashboard > DW Q&A > Question Tags.
See the Screenshot:
 
Hope this helps

Hi Dominic,

Thank you for the answer, I have created both categories and tags, but I don’t see any option to add the tags as a second filter as you have on your question page Named: (DW Question Answer).

So is there a quick fix, or do we have to wait for an update? I am desperately looking for this functionality as the it is a requirement of the project I am working on.

I tried to play with the code and was able to copy and and create a dropdown list in the ask question page form. But could any one help and advise how to create a tag filter on the answers listing and archive pages. Which is exactly as done on here http://cmspioneer.com/designwall/question/

You can see a dropdown for select a category
I want to create a dropdown as is here Select a product.

I want people asking questions to still be able to input tags on the ask a question page, But when questions are listed they should see two drop down filters.

Thankx

Hi Guru !
Apologize for the delay in replying to you.
Currently, DW Q&A plugin does not yet support to create a dropdown like the second filter Select a product on our designwall.com site.
On our site we have customized the plugin. We will discuss and plan to add it to next versions of the plugin.
Regards

Hi Dominic,

Thank you for the reply. You have a beautiful plugin here but unfortunately it needs alot of polishing to make it the best plugin out there.

I have already done a lot of work modifying the template and css files to make it work with my theme, without any programming knowledge.

i know this is a very simple modification, as the drop down function is already available. This just needs a simply modification to list tags as well.

The reason I am sharing all this, as I believe there are others in the situation and they can also benefit from the tweaks I have been trying to make.

So if there is any one out there who can help, it will be greatly appreciated.
