Overview
Tagging and filtering will allow you to create tags and assign them to content to give your visitor control over what content is being displayed to them. Tiles in a grid section may be categorized differently, based on the site creators' or viewers' needs or preferences.
Videos may be tagged according to the duration, popularity, resolution, suggested audience, creators, or features of the content, while the headshots in a team or organization section, or subpage, may be categorized based on the practice, role, title, location, department, seniority, or affiliations, of the resource.
These content categorizations are accomplished by tagging the tiles, while the tags are created by setting up a filter category. At least one category must be setup for the filter to be made available in a grid section, and for a tile to be tagged.
Create categories for tile tagging
Grid tiles or contents can be sorted, filtered, or tagged based on different categorizations. Categories are set up in the section, and at least one category must be made available for the tile tagging and filtering to work in the section.
Navigate to the subpage, and click the target grid section.
Scroll down to the bottom of the left editing panel, and check the box for Enable Filtering Options under Filter section.
Click the Edit button next to the checkbox.
In the Filtering options pop-up dialog box:
Set the Filter Text field with a label, or a name, which appears on top of the grid section.
Choose the appropriate Filter Method. Use the tooltip, question mark icon, at the end of each option for more details about each filter method.
Select the preferred Filter Type (Checkbox, Radio button, Dropdown).
Next to the Filter Group section, click the green + New filter category to add categorizations for the tiles. Indicate the label in the Category Name field, and the tags in the Tags field. These tags will be available for each of the tile in the grid section, and will be grouped based on the categorization.
Hide / unhide a category by clicking the eye icon above the category name field.
Delete a category by clicking the trash icon above the category name field.
Re-arrange the category by clicking the up or down icon above the category name field.
