Not sure where you're at with this - I realise I've been a little slow to
respond.
I guess as a first step, I think you'll need to actually pass the facet name as
a param value - so you know what to expect in the controller. ie:
@facets = Listing.facets(params[:search)
if params[:facet]
@listings = @facets.for(params[:facet].to_sym => params[:facet_value])
else
@listings = Listing.search params[:search], :page => params[:page]
end
I must admit, I've not implemented facets on any of my projects, so this is a
little of a grey area for me. I'm sure we can get a solution figured out though
(if you've not done so already).
Cheers
