Qucik Search dosn't yield results

jchase003 posted 16th of March 2008 in Community Voice. 16 comments.

Has anyone had any issues with using "quick search"? I have setup a test user that should only be a couple miles from me. When I do a search for people within 10 miles of the zip code it doesn't return the profiles that should be coming back. Anyone have this issue or no what might be wrong?

Thanks,
Josh

Hi Rob, I am running version 6.0.0005
So I guess I'm not the only one? If you do happen to find the solution would you remember to let me know and I will do the same?

Thanks,
Josh

Zip Codes....I know there are people in my area but when I search within my zip code it says no results found, search again.

Hi there.
I guess you are trying to use zip codes location - but you never installed any Zip codes. You can find all available Zip codes here:

Ok, I got it working. I downloaded the free zip code file from the link above http://www.expertzzz.com/Downloadz/home/dolphin/10/

Then do this.

Login to your cPanel or admin panel for your website. You want to look under the mysql options for "phpmyadmin"

Once you are in you will see the databases. You want to clcik the one for where dolphin is installed. See the list of tables to the left, "zipcodes" is at the bottom. Click on it

Next, click on the "import" see more

The more I play with it, it is yielding some search results, but still not working perfectly, I"m still working on this, but it's coming along at least from where I began.

Thanx, in that case I'm going to wait and download advanced world codes from singlemonster.

Yeah, I'll keep you in mind but, it probably won't be until the 3rd.....I've actually decided on a zip code mod by dadniel only $30. for world zip codes, comes with auto installer and support.
I had no idea that Dolphin came without the zip codes.

I bought it, works really well. I don't know how much better than the free one, but if you aren't comfortable with importing .sql files and such, this is a great script.
