Predefine filter for table view 19 Apr 2012 15:52 #2059

I have a grid list of items in the frontend, that belong to different categories. A filter field is shown above the grid. When creating a link to this page, I cannot select a category id, in order to show only the items of a specified category.

Is there a way to "predefine" the filter? For example with an extra parameter in the url like the option, view and layout-parameter.

Thanks in advance

Yes, every filter can be predefined in url :

for instance, combo filter on category :

URL&filter_category=xx

This is what you call a component builder. I was able to master using this in a very short time and the resulting component works like a charm. Not just a basic component builder but a fully working component builder with forms fields tables all ready to go. You can make the list and item views to display in the front and back end. Also there is a great forum just starting to evolve and I'm sure this will grow very rapidly when you all realise how good this tool is.
