When using the Number Range search field type, the range depends on the existing listings to avoid empty search results. Can we change this?
The user should be able to at least enter their own values or it should be more logical.
Ideally, it would be customisable with steps eg. Min = $0, $1,000, $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000, $15,000, $20,000, $50,000, $100,000 and Max = $1,000, $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000, $15,000, $20,000, $50,000, $100,000, No Max.
The issue with having the Number Range dependent on existing listings is that it confuses buyers when searching. They wouldn’t understand that there is no adds in the lower or higher range. They would just think that the website has been poorly set up or that there is a bug in the search system. This would reflect poorly on the website and the user would develop a bad opinion of the site and probably not return to the site.
