The filtering functionality in District Engage allows you to narrow down search results, making it easier and faster to find the information you require even in multi page lists.
To apply filters:
- Navigate to any list view (e.g., Project list view, Users list view),
-
At the top right of the page you will see a search bar icon followed by a filter icon.
-
To apply filters, click on the filter icon on the right side of the search bar. This will open a panel with different filter options relevant to the section you're in.
-
Select Filters:
- Depending on what list is in view a selection of filters will be available, such as “Status” or “Role” are presented as dropdowns. You can filter multiple fields in the same column by selecting multiple options in the dropdown.
- Selected filters appear as tags within the dropdown, and you can easily remove any filter by clicking the 'x' icon next to each tag
- To add another filter click the '+ Add filter' button.
- When one or more filters are applied, a small badge appears under the filter icon, showing the number of active filters. This icon will also change colour to indicate that filters are in use.
-
You can close the filter panel by clicking outside of it, and your selected filters will remain active even when the panel is hidden.
Tip
You can combine search terms in the search bar with multiple filters to refine your results further. For example, you can search for “park” in Projects while also filtering by Status: Published to see only published projects with “park” in the title or description.
