Hi there,
Just wanted to throw my use case out there to see what you think, so that I can set this up in the right way.
We have a list of hotels. Each hotel has a region (europe, latin america, north america, etc.), city, state, etc. as elements within the list.
We have the list set to require filtering to show results (so initially, no results are shown); however, the user is supposed to first select a region, then select a city. The problem is that the cities are obviously operating independently of the regions at this point, so there is nothing conditional about them; however, there needs to be.
Therefore, my thought is that the filtering should be based on a database join (regions) and cascading drop down element (cities). However, the tutorial for setting this up uses multiple lists to pull data from...
Given that the admin has all this data in just on spreadsheet, there is only just one list (aforementioned). Not sure if we *have* to setup multiple lists to accomplish the conditional filters, or if we can just do it all from the original, single list? (suggestions / feedback on this are welcomed)
If we have to do it as separate lists to get the conditional filtering, how would we set up the other lists so that we can dynamically pull the info into them from the original, single list? (suggestions / feedback on this are welcomed)
Thanks much in advance for your thoughts and feedback on this!
Cheers
Kyle
