Creating Filters
Filters are used to group together products and then have them displayed on the home page.
To get to the filters area click product > Filters
To create a filter click the ‘Insert’ button
You will then be asked to fill out a few fields
Each filter group can contain multiple filter names, which can then be sorted according to your preference. The sorting of the filter name affects the order of the filters as seen in the store front.
The filter groups and subsequent filter names can be anything that relates a group of products together. This gives you the added customization of determining which products can be viewed in different layouts and pages for your store front. The filter group above is designated to cookies, and the filter names include cookie types. Later we will link these filters to the dessert products in our store.
In order to make use of the Filter feature, the Filter module must be enabled under Modules, and mapped to a layout. For this example, filters will now be mapped to the Category Layout in the right column of the page.
In order to make filters active to a specific category, the filter must be mapped to the category’s Data tab. In addition, any products you want to be linked through the filter must be added in the Links tab when editing a product. Products are linked through selecting a Filter Group > Filter Name.
