This is a presales question: I want to build a web application on my wordpress site that will match users of a service with each other based on multiple criteria. Kind of a dating service type of arrangement. I'm thinking that because there will be different groups of criteria types, it will need to be a relational database, not flat.
Hi Shane: Can you be more specific why this won't work? I just tried a simple test (creating a new post time with filter of 5 different items) and it seemed to work OK. But maybe there's something I'm missing?
Hi Shane -- I want to create a matching system where a user enters their profile information, then checks off a series of checkbox sets that will act as filters.
So user1 enters his profile then is presented with the following sets: Favorite color: Red, Blue, Green; Favorite pet: Dog, Cat, Hamster; Favorite Drink: Beer, Wine, Water
Now user2 can search for compatibility using those filters. So they could look for someone who's favorite color is red, favorite pet is dog and favorite drink is wine.
