Hi everybody,

I am a newbie so I hope that this question will not sound as very stupid. I am thinking to realize a wiki for my website and I would like to give opportunity to have a kind of advanced research bar. My website is about old cars and what I want is that the user could filter the research for "model", "color", "year", is this possible ?

I think that you can create a special page with a table with the list of all cars and their specifications, then users can set filters by criteria at the table.

What you ask would be a feature of a relational database, however wiki pages don't have structured data, unless you run a Wikibase instance or you have Extension:Semantic MediaWiki, so this is not possible to do with search. With Semantic MediaWiki and a few other extensions like Ask and Semantic Forms you may be able to do something like this, but it's probably somewhat complex.
