My client would like his users to be able to filter this repeater/data collection by category. I tried adding multiple user inputs, submit buttons, filtering the dataset, etc. but nothing seems to work.
There are similar posts referencing a solution, but I’m getting a 404 error on all those pages.
How do I filter content inside a dataset by category?
Create a column in your content manager that defines the filter type (ie Categories)
The properties should be formatted using Text
Add your list of types of categories (ie Love, Romance)
Publish the site
Then go to the page and add INPUT > TEXT INPUT element
Select to manage choices and add all your categories exactly how you have them listed in your content manager
Then go to the Dataset icon and select SETTINGS
Add a FILTER and choose the Category field, leave the field as IS, select USER INPUT, select DROP DOWN
Publish and test
No need to assign the TEXT INPUT to a dataset as the DATA SET element will do that for you want connecting the FILTER.
I hope this helps.
OMG!!! It worked! Thank you @teejay !
