Display only certain type of listings

In OSClass 3.0 we introduced the function osc_query_item($params) where $params could be a string or an array.

Example of usage

You should call osc_query_item($params) function and later loop through the items with the “custom_items” helpers as usual

Only one keyword:

osc_query_item("keyword=value1,value2,value3,...");

Multiple keywords:

osc_query_item(array(
    "keyword1" => "value1,value2",
    "keyword2" => "value3,value4"
));

Real live examples

Only one keyword:

<?php osc_query_item("region_name=Madrid");
if( osc_count_custom_items() == 0) { ?>
    <p class="empty"><?php _e('No Listings', 'modern') ; ?></p>
<?php } else { ?>
    <table border="0" cellspacing="0">
         <tbody>
            <?php $class = "even"; ?>
            <?php while ( osc_has_custom_items() ) { ?>
             <tr class="<?php echo $class. (osc_item_is_premium()?" premium":"") ; ?>">
                    <?php if( osc_images_enabled_at_items() ) { ?>
