Rental and Sale Listings

Hi,
I hope that you can help as I'm having trouble with setting up 2 different lisitings pages. I'm trying to follow the example in the documentation but when I click on the link to either my Rental or Sale page I get the message: Invalid template name: '_rent_result.html'
I've copied the _search_results.html file and renamed to _rent_result.html and _sale_result.html and placed them in the template directory.
Any ideas what I've done wrong??

Hi Craig,
This is probably due to either of these:
1. double check it's in the right directory (/templates) (the program just assumes it is, then gives the error message you saw if it can't find it).
2. the file doesn't have read-access. Make sure it's set to 644 (Unix).
By the sounds of it, it's most likely the second problem. Post me back! :-)

Ben,
I've check that the files are in templates and are also set to 644.
I've added this piece of code to the _publish_listing_index.html:
<a href="$search_url$?search=1&lfield30='rental'&template='_rent_result.html'">View Rentals</a>
<a href="$search_url$?search=1&lfield30='sale'&template='_sale_result.html'">View Sales</a>
In field 30 I have set active and active and as a dropdown box with rental and sale as the values. I have at least one property listed as sale.
Any more ideas??
Craig

Hi Craig,
Hmmm... Your queries look pretty good, but try changing those two lines to this:
<a href="$search_url$?search=1&lfield30=rental&template=_rent_result.html">View Rentals</a>
<a href="$search_url$?search=1&lfield30=sale&template=_sale_result.html">View Sales</a>
(Just remove those extra apostrophes) post me back!

Ben,
Thanks that worked, now when I clcik on View Sales it shows me search results correctly, but I only have one property and it's set-up as a "sale", when I click on View Rentals I see this property as well??
The links I used were straight from http://www.interactivetools.com/docs/realtymanager/ on the Search Engine Template page, may be you should amend this.
What else do I need to do?
Thanks
Craig
P.S. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you but I'm in the UK!

Hi Craig,
Oops! I missed something. Change the links to this:
<a href="$search_url$?search=1&lfield30_match=rental&template=_rent_result.html">View Rentals</a>
<a href="$search_url$?search=1&lfield30_match=sale&template=_sale_result.html">View Sales</a>
- Just tack on "_match" after "lfield30". This tells the search engine to only return those listings where the EXACT text of listing field 30 is "rental" or "sale". Give that a go, and it should fix things.
Sorry about that.
