In this tutorial we will try to save cgridview filter(search) with title etc. basically we want to save two forms data i.e one represents filters and other data about filters like title, description etc. You can define your own structure for filter saving table here are some basic steps
Step -1: create table according to requirements for filters ,in my case save_filter
Step-2: in admin within controller
$saveFilter=new SaveFilters;
…
$this->render('admin',array(
…
'saveFilter'=>$saveFilter,
));
Step-3: render form
$this->renderPartial('_saveFilters', array(
'model' => $saveFilter,
));
Step-4: write scripts for getting data from both forms
// #save-filters-form & #SearchFormNew are form IDs
Yii::app()->clientScript->registerScript('filter', "
$('.filter-form form').submit(function(){
jQuery.ajax({
'success': function(data) {
$('#FilterStatus').html(data);
},
'type': 'POST',
'data': $('#save-filters-form,#SearchFormNew').serialize(),
'url': '" . $this->createUrl('/mycontroller/saveFilters') . "',
});
return false;
});
", CClientScript::POS_READY);
Step-5: get in controller
public function actionSaveFilters(){
// your data structure
if(isset($_POST['SaveFilters'])) print_r($_POST['SaveFilters']);
// define table (fields or json format,text or different)
// Generate Crud
// feed data and show some message or redirection
// load data when needed
// you can use $criteria = new CDbCriteria; loading filters in admin when filter is apllied
}
Step-6: load your filter when applied :P

example needed
Sorry but it's not so clear how can I implement it.
Can you post a complete example? I think it will be helpful.
One more thing. Is it possible to save sort setting too?
@peppe
as its clear that i am saving form selected fields in db with filter data like filter title,description and reload when somebody select filter and applying all those conditions in admin() when load dataprovider for cgridview. this is just general form , can u tell me your problem specific? b/c from step 1 to 6 i have explained with example which i used for my self!
another way
why not just save the filter data in your session? this is what i do and it works ok till now
public function actionAdmin() { $model=new Cartuse('search'); $model->unsetAttributes(); // clear any default values if(isset($_GET['Cartuse'])) //are there new filters? $_SESSION['filterData'][$this->id][$this->action->id] = $_GET['Cartuse']; //save them in session $model->attributes=$_SESSION['filterData'][$this->id][$this->action->id]; //apply filters from session $this->render('admin',array( 'model'=>$model, )); }this way you don't need another object. i think is faster, it resets on login / logout or session destroy / expire, and like so you can save all your model's filters in any and all controllers. works whit afterajax update, or whit pagerefresh, etc
Doubt!
Can u please explain the Step 3rd and 4th.
Like were we use the code?
And how about this approach?
As I already wrote many times, I'm friend of very simple native solutions. What do you think about this?
