Good afternoon all, I have a quick question based on the new list filter.
I have two filters set up for a list of data. Is there a way to create a default filter to the list please? Or a way around it (without coding as I don’t have that option)! Many thanks.
Hey,
Try to access your pre filtered list via url, using this format:
https://yourproject.url/filter-by-{{your_filter_field_name}}={{your_filter_field_value}}
Thanks for this - I did see that option, but the link to “Drawings” exists within a tabbed container. I can’t see an option for a manual link within that container?
You can place code block on that particular tab, that when accessed the url will refresh to your desired prefiltered list keywords.
Thanks acjnas. I only have the free version of Softr. I presume this isn’t an option for me?
Yes, that option is not included with the free plan. Sorry about that.
My suggestion would be to have your prefiltered list loaded in the first tab. And access the page with the prefilled filter params in the url.
That’s a good workaround, but sadly that tab only appears for a few projects (when there are actually drawings available). Therefore I can’t have it as the first page. I wonder if there’s anywhere I can request a default button for these filters?
@acjnas Thanks for the url filter note.
Do you know how I would filter by the logged in user?
We have a PM system and tasks are assigned to various owners. I want the system to default to the logged in user’s tasks. They still need to see everyone’s task which is why I can’t filter at the block level.
