I am trying to build a searchable bibliography. The data set includes items in the bibliography, including fields that be selections on a drop-down menu. The goal is for users to be able to search for particular parameters and have the relevant bibliographic entries be displayed in a view. I have the basic concepts of this process down, but would appreciate help from someone with expertise willing to join me on a Zoom call or something to go over the steps. Thank you.

Before you can even discuss how to build this, you’re going to need a data model and sketch out the search query parameters in natural language so any developer that helps you will understand your intent. By natural language it’s just describing what fields you want to search and how you think they should be combined with ands and or. After that a developer can determine if you should use the query Formidable generates or a different approach. You can find developers at https://formidable-masterminds.com/developers-directory/

Thank, Victor. I can provide a very detailed natural language description (I just wanted to keep things brief for the forum). Thanks for the link. N.
