Plugins for Form Search Query functionality
-
Hello all,
I’ve been working on a project and am looking at using WordPress as a development environment. It should be noted that I only know a little about coding (just enough to be dangerous, really), and so have been trying to find some plugins that will do what I want. I’m having trouble, though, as I can find pieces of the functionality, but don’t have an understanding of how I can put them all together. .
I suspect I’m just not searching using the right terminology. Here’s what I’m after:
I want the user to fill out a survey/form, and that will build a search criteria to subsequently display content. For example:
———————
Survey:1. Question to determine rating of skill A. Select a skill level: 1 – 2 – 3
2. Question to determine rating of skill B. Select a skill level: 1 – 2 – 3
3. Question to determine rating of skill C. Select a skill level: 1 – 2 – 3[Submit Button]
Submit Action:
If all skills are 3, display ‘You’re all trained!’
If one or more skills are rated lower than 3, take lowest skill rating and query the database for content tagged as improving that skill. Display results in a column.
If next lowest is less than 3, query database for that content and display in another column.
———————
From what I see, there are form plugins that will log data, and search plugins that can query a database, but I’m not seeing how I can link the two. Something like a quiz could work, if I could find one robust enough to have more than just a correct answer designation, and the ability to output something like that described above.
Does anyone have any ideas? Perhaps someone could point me to an appropriate plugin, or let me know what kind of terminology to search for for this functionality?
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
