How to configure Filters in Searchfields?
Hi there!
Besides filters in lists, we can use filters in the searchfields of lists, if searchfields are defined. So, now I'll give you an example how the filtering works in searchfields of either listviews or calendarlistviews.
As mentioned above, it is important that the search is defined, i.e. you have to state the searchfields, for instance: searchfields=name,company. Then we do need fieldmappings in order to set the filters. We configure the fieldmappings displayed in the following screenshot.
For each fieldmapping, which should be a filter in the search, we have to set the definition isFilter. If isFilter=yes is set, we can use this filtering. For example, if we want to search in the project list for all projects of one specified company, we can set the name of the company within the filter.
If you click on the right button within the searchfield, the filters are shown.
