Real-time filtering/sorting on website (Faceted navigation)

It would be great to be able to easily create a robust portfolio, with real-time filters. For example, if you are a photographer, then an image gallery with filter categories such as landscape, portraits, street photography, etc... Upon clicking on the filter, only the specific category items appear. This is very common with wordpress portfolio sites, but its extremely difficult to set up in webflow.

    • It’s been over FIVE YEARS since this was posted

    • It’s been one of the TOP THREE wishlist items since its posting

    • This is a a feature native to WF’s competitors

    • There’s a reason so many third parties have built scripts to solve this problem

    Webflow Team: please listen to your users and prioritize this item. The third party solutions are complex and have many deficiencies, like degrading the performance of pages.

    This is done with bit of code through finsweet, but honestly that takes too much time. Something simple I would like to see

    This is definitely a must-have, and is the only reason that I am still considering whether or not to switch to Webflow, only because they do not offer this really really basic and necessary feature.

    I agree this is an important feature... I did manage to accomplish something similar with the tabs component though. Working perfectly fine !

    This is a 1000% required! On-page filtering/sorting is a MUST for many types of websites, and I'm sure that once we have a native solution for this more people will use Webflow.

    Finsweet has a decent solution but I wish Webflow provided it a native element for us, one we could set and connect to CMS/Ecommerce fields. If Webflow wants to growth its marketshare and capture WordPress and Shopify users, filtering and sorting must be available.

    I agree, this is required for 100% nocode developer, but hear me out, it requires very simple embed javascript code combined with Webflow CMS and you will have a working filter/sorting mechanism fully editable in CMS. Maybe they are not rushing to solve this issue because if it's really required for a client a coding developer will solve it quick.

    This is a MUST HAVE FEATURE. It's mindblowing and honestly shocking that it still hasn't been implemented after 6 years!!!

    I have been searching for a website builder that has this function and so far none have provided a robust integrated solution. I run a real estate agency and the ability to filter and sort properties for users to quickly find what they're looking for is essential and doesn't seem that difficult to implement. Why is no one including this basic feature?

    When I recommended a client build their site on Webflow I assumed this was a no brainer and an included feature. I am shook. How is this not a priority at the base level, with how much content clients need to create and house in their blog/cms these days?

    I haven't made a single website that doesn't need this.
