2 issues I need help with! Vendor cats & search bar functionality!

Hey folks,

Just wondering if anyone could help me out, have two issues here I really need to resolve.

Vendor categories – I’m looking for a way to create vendor specific categories i.e: “barbers”, “bike shop” etc. and implement them on registration and then be able to create a filterable drop down widget that corresponds with a search-bar (filters search results)

Search bar – Secondly to correspond with the aforementioned feature, is there anyway to create a search bar that pulls up vendors according to their postcode i.e: I search “L4 6DA” – search results display L4 based vendors.

Thirdly as a bonus if anyone could tell me if it’s possible to simplify the frontend dashboard for vendors and create a basic or simplified storefront template that will apply to all stores?

Thank you to anyone who picks this up, will be eternally grateful <3

Cheers

Jordan
