Search Module

[alepoudaki]

I am using the latest version 2.0.18a of Virtuemart. I want a simple search module, which will be present inside a menu item of type VirtueMart Categories Layout.

All I want is an input to write text and a drop down list to choose category. So search by text and inside category. Can you give me a solution to this by proposing an extension? Connercial or non, it doesn't matter.

I have already bought an extension (Cherry Picker - http://www.galt.md/) but I cannot find that simple search I describe. I must create Custom Fields... So in order not to buy extensions which doesn't fit me, please if someone knows, answer me ASAP.
Thank you.

...So search by text and inside category.

I think you would get the same effect if you place links to individual VM2 categories in a menu module and the VM2 search module right below and then label the category menu "Search in category" and unpublish the search module on the homepage. Currently VM2 search results are limited to a category, when you start the search in a category view.

I have 50 categories until know and probably I will add more. So this is something impractical.
I want the results to include ALL products of a category AND its subcategories. Why Virtuemart doesn't have this option??
Does someone knows where is the code of virtuemart search query in order to change it. Or try change it...
