My web page is very detailed. We have a Various Parent Categories and Various Child Categories. I like to refer them as simply, Categories and Subcategories.

I.E. Vehicles Category has various Subcategories such as: Cars, Motorcyles, Boats, Jet Ski's, etc. In Vehicles it is best to have a Parent and Child Extra Fields to place the Make and Models.

Our Search layout consists of "2 section". The Fixed Extra Fields and the Extra Fields.

FIXED EXTRA FIELDS:
TEXTBOX
MAKE
MODEL
YEAR RANGE
PRICE RANGE
CONDITION
LOCATION

EXTRA FIELDS:

Issue: The MODEL appears as the last Field at the very bottom of the page, after the EXTRA FIELDS section. We would like to have it like the list above, since we consider these top priorties in a search and shouldn't be at the very bottom.

Any ways to accomplish this?

Because the parent child extra fields are created dynamically it would be very difficult to do this. I imagine you may have to edit the ajax.php file where it pulls this data out but I do not have any advice on what to change.

I need to do this too.
Eric, can you detect if its a Parent field fType=P and add a the child below, it could be deactivated...
Thanks in advance
