How to Search Products by Price Range? VM 2 Joomla 2.5

[blackjet9999]

Hi all,

Any suggestion that can I search products by price range without using 3rd party extension on Joomla 2.5 and virtuemart 2?

What I can think of is adding some types of query in the URL:
For Example: http://virtuemart.com/joomla_virtuemart/index.php/search?keyword=laptop&limitstart=0&option=com_virtuemart&view=category&low-price=500&high-price=1000

Do you have any suggestion by using this query method or others, please kindly let me know.

Thanks

You could check out Custom filters http://breakdesigns.net/extensions/custom-filters  and demo page (http://test3.breakdesigns.net/)
and cherry picker(demo page): http://www.galt.md/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=22&Itemid=1

Hi, bytelord, thanks for your answer. However, is there anyway that I can do without using the extension?

Hello,

I think you have to right a module for that with some complex  SQL queries also. I don't know other way this to get done. The core haven't any implementation for searches based on prices.
