J-BusinessDirectory - Hyperlinks that have some search parameters already set.

I'd like to have about 8-10 hyperlinks on my home page that when clicked will do a directory search say on the category assigned to the hyperlink.  That or have it process some code with a query that has that category already assigned.  Want to give visitors the option to just use the link instead of using the category drop box on the search bar.

I realize this might require some php or sql query work but not sure if it's an extremely hard task to do or something that with a little work could be done.  Trying to see what options there might be to do something like this as easily as possible.

Hi,

You can have something like https://www.website.com/index.php/directory?categorySearch=26
The categorySearch param is the id of the category that you want to have.

You can also create a menu item of type Business Listings and select the category there.
