Greetings,
I hope someone can send me in the right direction. I’m pretty inexperienced at programming and have more of an art background, which has been absolutely fine up until now, but I want to create a new site with a Product Search to my website and I have no idea what I should be looking at to do this. Is it a Form? Or a Custom Search Engine? I just don’t know.
Here what I’m trying to do: I sell paintings and I’d like someone to be able to do a refined search where they put in their criteria and then a list of my paintings that meet said criteria comes up. So for example, some of the options I give them could be “Price Range,” “Painting Subject,” and “size.” If they selected “Under $100,” “Landscape,” and “24 inches by 12” then I would want a list of the paintings that fall into all those categories to come up with links to each painting’s original purchase page. I looked into some basic custom search engines, but they only work on keywords, not specific variables.
I’m an artist, I don’t have a lot of money, so I’m hoping someone can tell when what it is I’m looking for and I will be able to research it myself and hopefully build it using my own skills or a relatively inexpensive company that provides templates for this kind of thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
