Can you point me in the right direction? Its not even in the docs

The Articles Field shows up like any other custom field.
Do you know how to make other Joomla core fields show up in your articles?

What I want to do is filter articles that have field A value X

And truthfully, I just want it for the backend. Im using it like a tag

I am not sure what you want to know.
All the filters are available in the custom field when you create it.
Including filters for custom field values.

This will determine the articles shown in the select field that will be available in the article edit view.

I am not sure what you want as an end result, and how you plan to use Articles Field.
I don't understand how you want to use this as a tag for just the admin side.
I think Articles Field is not what you want or expect it to be.

I created Fields using the standard field Creation in joomla. I don't see anything related to your plug-in there. I looked everywhere to create what you're asking me to create and I can't figure out where to do it

1) Go to Content > Fields
2) Create new field
3) Select Type: "Articles (articles)"
4) Scroll down to see all the settings

The Type "Articles - Linked (articleslinked)" has a different function which you can read about here:

I see. That would be great if that was clear in the documentation that we have to create a field of type "Regular Labs Article Field". For me the field already exists and Im looking to filter that

Thanks for the feedback.

But actually, this is explained in the documentation.

The main field (Articles) is explained here:
docs3.regularlabs.com/articlesfield/the-basics/articles-field
(First article under 'Basics'.)

The extra field (Articles - Linked) is explained here:
docs3.regularlabs.com/articlesfield/the-...rticles-linked-field
(Second article under 'Basics'.)
