I would like to be able to search by either full state name or state abbreviation in the User Search box. Since both of those use the same field name (cboState), it only accepts the full state name. Is there some way to get it to accept the abbreviation? You are not given the option to choose name/value on User Search.

Thanks,

Ed,

In the current XMod,  in filtering options, you can assign either the name or value to the cboState filter option.

If you check the box next to the filter option, use value, it accepts the passed querystring parameter for the value of the field (State abbreviation).

Since the State values are directly returned from the DNN Lists table, the name is the State name and the value is the abbreviation.

In the builtin Xmod search, only the name is returned for the search results.

In the advanced search for BD, the select statement for the return of State would have to be modified to return the state value (abbreviation)

It is important if you customize these options that you end up with the correct matching pair.

If you are passing the State value and you have the Filtering options set to the State name, no data would be returned.

If I use the BD Advanced Search there would be no need to change anything as values are picked from a drop-down list. That works fine, I was just looking for possible alternatives to using that form.

Thanks,
