Hi
I am looking for a bit of advice as a newish Drupal user, I am developing a site for use by people who suffer from Aphasia. The site is to give them a list of available software that may be useful to them but needs to be filtered by the particular aspects of their condition.
I will be given a list of software applications that have been evaluated by a speech therapist. So I will have for example:
The name of the software and then a long list of evaluation criteria which will have the answer yes or no by it
e.g. can it be customised, are there tutorials, can you use a mouse, is it good for sentence level reading etc etc.
The user then needs to be able to tick a list of requirements and be presented with a list of appropriate software.
I was thinking I could set up a content type for the software evaluation with CCK fields for the yes/no answers and then use views somehow to present the information.
I was thinking I would need to use Dynamic Views as the results would be different every time, is this the kind of thing that Dynamic Views are good for or should I be looking at an entierly different approach?
Any thoughts and ideas gratefully recieved
Comments
My immediate thought would be
My immediate thought would be to great a vocabulary with requirements. You could then perhaps make a form available (exposing the terms in view filters) to let your users select their criteria. The view would then produce a list of nodes (about each software) that mach those criteria. You'll have to decide how to structure the vocabulary.
Not the most helpful post perhaps, but I think taxonomy is the way to go.
Thanks
Thanks for the information, I was coming around to that idea but I don't know a lot about Taxonomy yet so will read up on it.
Cheers
