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.

For starters it's just so easy to design an app in a way that I'm used to i.e. database first then views followed by customization. The fork system is pure brilliance from a developer standpoint as I can override things and still add and update my projects with minimal effort! Truly amazing to be able to build components in Joomla using incremental refinement without having to do everything by hand. Thanks for the great tool! I am so much more productive now than ever and I can't imagine building components any other way!!!!
