I have a page that lists 48 types of contractor services (e.g. plumbing, electrical, landscaping, etc.) I want a visitor to be able to click on a service and get a list of businesses in the area for the service he clicks on. I have to set up a multi-record editor for each service but I’m wondering if I have to set up 48 different viewer pages, one for each service. I’m hoping that I can set up one generic viewer that will be populated with the info (business name, town, phone, etc.) for the service clicked on, but I can’t figure out how to do it. Is it possible and, if so, will you please tell me what I should do?

Thanks and best to all,

Farnham

Hi Farnham,

You'd basically have two different files for this. One would be a list page, the other a detail page. I'd also recommend consolidating all of your multi-record editors down into one, and using categories to differentiate by what type of service it is.

You can then easily filter by category to allow your users to click what kind of service they want.

Does that make sense? Let me know if that gets you on track. :)
