Pre selected search filter for Category pages?

[craymond]

Hello,
I want to include this search tool on category pages. Each category would contain different subject matter content. Using the filter options for search, is it possible to have the filter automatically pre selected for each category? So for instance, I might have the following:

1) Dust and Fume Category
2) Search tool filter automatically pre selected “Dust & Fume” out of 30 other possible category filters

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Well, currently the only simple way to do that is via this tutorial. Another way would be to use the filters API, but that is much more complicated. I only recommend that if you have extensive development experience.
