I just thought to find a way around it using categories, dropdownmenus and tags.

I'm afraid that's the best there is. I posted again above because I didn't want you to waste time trying out over 200 themes in vain.

I just thought to find a way around it using categories, dropdownmenus and tags. It's not perfect but it'll do for now.

Thanx for all your answers, they've been very helpful!

You can hire a web host and set up your own WordPress.org install and then create a customized search for your self hosted install, or use an existed plugin, but you cannot do that here on a free hosted WordPress.com blog.

Changing themes does not result in a loss of data. You can go here > Appearance > Themes and select a new theme and activate it as many times as you choose to. After changing themes you may have to replace your widgets by removing them from the Inactive Wigets box here and installing where you want them > Appearance > Widgets

A quick last question, maybe you know: if I try another theme and it doesn't work out, and turn it back to the old layout, do I lose any of my work?

Hope you are able to help me.

My blog holds recipes and I'd like my visitors to be able to choose a recipe that is glutenfree, lactosefree and a maincourse for example... Now I have a category "glutenfree" but that holds recipes with lactose aswell, so we have to narrow down the search.

Hope my explanation is clear. Thanx for an answer!

Cheers, Judith
