Filtered list

What is the filtered list block element?

It uses the same filtering and sorting methods you might see on a shopping site. For example, filtering your results by colour, size and category, and ordering the results by lowest price or most relevant.

For example, you could set up a filtered list to display:

• the five most recent news articles
• all people who are in a particular office, ordered by name
• all articles with the word "brand" in the title, ordered by date last updated

Note - filtered lists automatically update, so when a new item is created which fits a filtered list's criteria, the filtered list will display the new item.

The other type of list you can use to display articles, people etc. is the pinned list.

How do filtered lists and pinned lists differ?

The default starting  point:

• Before adding filters to a filtered list, by default it shows ALL available items. You need to add filters to narrow down the list. The more filters you add, the shorter the list will become
• Before selecting items for a pinned list, by default it will show NO items.
