    Is there a template that can be set up to have built-in search filters to quickly find listing entries by country, state and city?

    @ Chad

    Sorry, no. The next release of the Widget Pack will feature a beta widget which will allow this.

    I’m undecided how to to do the user presentation of the selection at this point, the reason it’ll be a beta widget.

    A couple of the options I’m mulling over…

    • A chained select where a user would first choose a country, then the drop down showing the regions (states) within the selected county. When a user selects the region, then a drop down with localities (cities) will be displayed, then at this point the user could filter based on the selections.
    • The widget would initially show a list of countries. When a user chooses a country the page would refresh showing the list of entries in the selected country and then the widget would then show only the regions within the chosen country. Clicking a region would then refresh the page showing only the entries within the selected region. The widget would then show the localities within the chosen region … and then the same as before of a user chooses a locality …
    • Another option would not to involve countries at all and use a single select with option groups where the option group would be the region name and the options within the group would be the localities.

    Would one of those work for you?
