Can I use different extra fields for different categories? If yes.. How can I do that

[bhavdip +]

Hi.
I want to use different extra fields for different categories in my website? For e.g if listing is posted in female model category... extra fields while viewing listing should be 1) Shoots per Day:, 2) Measurements:, 3) Natural Eye Colour:, 4) Hair Style: & if Male Model Category .. extra fields while viewing listing should be 1) Experience:, 2) Biseps, 3) Chest Measurement & 4) Skin Colour. I have to create different extra fields for different categories in this way.

Please Help

Have you tried reading the documentation that explains this?

Thank You Mike for your help. I have one more thing to ask. When user login to their account and clicks place an ad button that time when filling listing details in Step 3 only one price field is there..... my users needs two price fields in that form, so user can add the price range starting from till the ending from? I have placed an image of the kind of form I want in step 3. So if registered user enters price ranging from 100 to 500 in his ad , than the site viewers who are searching for manufacturers of price range 200 his listing should be shown as his range is between 100 to 500.
can I do that?

The default price field is for a definitive price. There isn't anything built into this script that would accommodate what you are describing by default. You could of course not show the price field and create extra fields such as "Minimum Price" and "Maximum Price", however I believe that you aren't going to be able use the search to "combine" these two separate fields as the search is going to look for a match on each field separately. If you set each field to be searchable and as a "Range" field it could work, but then the end user may be easily confused as they would need to set a minimum and maximum for each one of the two fields.

The range field does allow min and max searching. But on the add / edit section it is changed to one select list.
