Hello and thanks for this wonderful tool called SEBLOD.

I am developing my first SEBLOD project and I need a list of “CATEGORIES > Subcategories > Articles” with the following structure:

CATEGORY 1
   Subcategory 1.1
       Article 1.1.1
       Article 1.1.2
       ················
   Subcategory 1.2
       Article 1.2.1
       Article 1.2.2

·······················

CATEGORY 8
    Subcategory 8.1
       Article 8.1.1
       Article n.1.2
       ···············
   Subcategory 8.2
       Article 8.2.1
       Article 8.2.2
       ·················

There will be 8 Categories and a variable number of Subcategories and Articles (I hope the list structure is clear enough.

I don´t know even how to start so any help would be welcome.

I see that the fields belongs to 2 content types (Article and Category), so I suppose I need a “Multi-stage search” or a “Search Join Field” or a “Search Query Field Plugin” to generate the query (I don’t know which is better or if there is another alternative).

But I also need to “group” the results (in categories and subcategories) and “display” them in a list. I wonder if there is a standard way to do it or I need to create my own list template (I don´t know if I am able to create such a template).

In next step I need to implement a Search form (select Category and/or Subcategory and/or search text) but for now this list is enough complex for me.

So that’s the situation and I really appreciate your help. Regards
Pedro
