[wp-pro] wp-pro Digest, Vol 55, Issue 18

I'm the developer of the Role Scoper 
<http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/role-scoper/> plugin.  Its 
development and maintenance has given me significant experience in the 
WordPress taxonomy schema and code.  In addition, I have recently 
consulted for a site which required simultaneous custom taxonomy query 
conditions similar to your desired combination of category AND tag.

Based on this recent experience, I can commit to delivering the 
requested query functionality (repeated below) via plugin for $100.  I 
can deliver it within 24 hours of request, if you let me know before 
Friday noon.

    Allow categories to be expressed by their slugs during a
    search, and allow the search function to find the intersection of two
    or more categories using the '+' operator

This bid is strictly for the backend query functionality.  Although I am 
also available for UI customization, no such requirement was evident 
from your post, and is not included in this bid.

Sincerely,

Kevin Behrens

> + [02]Red (a child of color)
> + [03]Green (a child of color)
> + [04]Class
> + [05]Fruit (a child of class)
> + [06]Vegetable (a child of class)

> If the posts are categorized with one color and one class, I'd like my

> %postid%/%subcategory04%/%subcategory01%/%postname%
> or
> http://www.food.com/21/Fruit/Red/Apple

> Lovely!

> You can might consider this plug as a starting point:

> SECOND PLUG - TAG/CATEGORY SEARCH PARITY
> ================================================
> The Wordpress category search system is less flexible than the tag
> search system. Automatically, the query string
> http://www.example.com/?tag=Fruit+Red will yield the intersection of
> the two tags and http://sandbox.3dcodex.com/?tag=Fruit,Red will yield
> the union ordered by date.
> However, trying the same thing with categories is not so easy.
> http://www.example.com/?category=02+05 will not yield posts in the
> intersection of categories 1 and 2, and comma separated category IDs
> isn't as expressive.  In a system so elegant I'm a little surprised
> that this hasn't been built yet.
>
> I would like a plug-in that will will bring parity to these two
> systems. Allow categories to be expressed by their slugs during a
> search, and allow the search function to find the intersection of two
> or more categories using the '+' operator.
>
> I.E. http://www.example.com/?tag=Sweet+Crisp&cat=Fruit+Red will yield
> posts categorized under both fruit?and?red that are tagged with both
> sweet?and crisp. See how nice that looks? ^_^
>
> Looks like this plug-in already does something similar, but I want
> this functionality separated- clean and tight.
