Hello Peter,
In the video Articles Anywhere as a CCK ( docs3.regularlabs.com/articlesanywhere/v...es-anywhere-as-a-cck ) You are referring to the Smackdown Hotel website (I would love to work on such a project 🙂).
Do you know which plugin is used for the filters found on this page for example: www.thesmackdownhotel.com/roster/
Thank you

Hey Simon!
This is Andy, moderator here at Regular Labs and... creator of The SmackDown Hotel website 😁
For that Roster Page, we simply used Tabs, which is another plugin from Regular Labs:
regularlabs.com/tabs
If you mean the gray box on top where it says "Filters", that's just custom coding that we developed specifically for the wrestlers (it's not a Joomla plugin)

Hello Andrea,
Thank you for your reply.
I always thought that an extension that would allow you to dynamically filter the Articles Anywhere list of articles from a search form published in the frontend would be great.
Something like {articles articles="frontend_search_request" …}
Thank you

Well, that is actually possible with Articles Anywhere. 😁
Look into this:
docs3.regularlabs.com/articlesanywhere/data-tags/input-values
This allows you to filter articles by a value coming from the URL.
So if you add an input/search form, which will add the input value to the URL, you can then use that on the page to filter Articles depending on it.
Check it out!

Andrea,
Unfortunately I am only a simple integrator.
I don't think I can develop the form you suggest myself.
Anyway Thanks for the tip

The input thing also works on POST data. So you just have to make a little form that sends that to the same page you are on.
You could start with something really simple:
Then in your {articles} tag, just do:You could use a form extensions to create your simple forms.

You could start with something really simple:
<form>
<label for="fname">Category:</label>
<select name="category">
<option>Animals</option>
<option>Fruit</option>
<option>Long Stringy Things</option>
<option>Feelings</option>
</select>
<br>
<input type="submit" class="button" value="Submit">
</form>Then in your {articles} tag, just do:
{articles category="input:category"}
