Hi, I just downloaded a component I made and I´m wondering how I can create a filter on the menu link.

Details.
In Joomla->admin I go to menus and add a menu item of type MYCOMPONENT->MYITEMS.

What I want to be able to do is select 1 or many MYITEMS to be displayed accoring to a filter I set in the menu item.

Is this possible ?

Sample can be seen here teamgym2014.is/__sb/index.php/home/countries

Hi, I figured out I can do it by adding a filter. The filter then shows up while adding the menu item.

Although I found this tool some time ago I just started learning experimenting and building this first component on Monday and now on Thursday afternoon it's already online. Although I already had a working version done with another tool this is much easier to build and at the end you have the freedom to own your own component. Once you know how to use Cook you will boost your productivity as the learning curve is really moderate compared to many other tools.
