img_filter_32 Filter Sets

The “Filter sets” step is one of the optional components and controls various output parameters. In our example, a filter will be created that only shows entries with “Published” activated for the frontend output.

To access the filters, activate the MetaModels overview again so that the “Employee List” entry is visible. Then click the icon “img_filter Filters” and the view switches to the filters overview — which is currently still empty.

After clicking “img_new New”, the mask for creating a filter opens immediately. Only a name for the filter is entered in the “Name” input field — e.g. “Published” (see screenshot).

The filters overview should now show the first entry “Published” — see screenshot.

Clicking the icon “img_filter_setting Attributes” opens the next level for the filter attributes. Here, the filter is configured with its filter attributes. The filter attributes can be linked together in various combinations and nesting. For the example, only one filter attribute is added to the filter by clicking the “img_new New” icon in the header.

After clicking, only the clipboard icon img_pasteinto is initially visible — clicking the icon opens the configuration mask.

For filtering the published status, there is a special filter under “Type” that is selected. As the attribute, “Published” is selected (see screenshot).

After clicking “Activated” and “Save and close”, the filter attribute is complete and the following list view should be visible (see screenshot).

The filter is now defined and can be activated in various components.
