    Default Creating A Snippet For A Search Field I Don't Have

    Is it possible to create a snippet for a search field I don't have in my detailed search, but yet it is available on my data feed, and if so how? For example, lets say I never had a search field for users to check off for Bank Foreclosures, how would I create a snippet for users to click on to search for Bank Foreclosures in a city without knowing what url to point it to?

    If I had the search field already created I could see how it would be easy by going to the detailed search option, clicking on the city name and clicking on bank foreclosures and then just copying the url address to paste in the snippet, but if one didn't have the capability searching bank foreclosures on their site how would you know what the url address would be?

    I didn't think this was possible, but Aaron said it was the other day, so I'm curious how to do this.

    You would need to post a work order for whatever custom snippet fields you want available within a snippet.

    So, as an example, you would format a #northville-bank-foreclosures# (or name it whatever you like) snippet using the appropiate code and put it into the new page you make for Northville Bank Foreclosures. The properties would then show up on that page.

    What I mean was is that if you wanted to have a snippet for something - you could have us create the ability for you to make a snippet. I was only stating that you could have some fields that are available in a snippet ( because you had us add them ) - but were not on your search form. For example Drew has pages with short sales snippets on them - yet you cannot search short sales on the form. Make sense?
