I cannot even express how grateful I'm to the Finsweet team for all these amazing functionalities. I could have never achieved what I did without the high quality tools and content that you guys provide. Thank you so much guys.
Wow! Thanks for showing the whole steps like adding a new search element to the existing page was so helpful to see. Also the clonable helps answer other questions of how all this should be structured within the form block.
"Come on Designer!" Joe really gets frustrated when things don't work as they should. Joe really gets frustrated when things don't work as they should. It must be because of that focus that Joe puts in that Finnsweet has such incredible products! Don't stop! This is amazing!
Raw and unfiltered content! Thank you so much for letting me decide for myself how much detail I do or do not want to sit through!!! I didn't scrub through a single second, and I hope you make all your walkthroughs like this one!
Hi guys, it's amazing how powerful and easy to implement your solutions are!! 🔥We already work with a number of them on our projects, thank you so much! There's just one thing we didn't achieve yet: search by date range. I understand that 3 attributes need to be set on each filter-fields and collection-fields relating to the "from" and "to" dates: field identifier, filter type and range, right? However, we didn't succeed yet! Is there any specific tutorial on this topic? 🙏
I just love you guys. The cms-filter is such a joy to use - and it just works. Could you guys please take over webflow? I cannot imagine what your team would be able to build with the resources of webflow. Or even better - you could lunch your own web-builder-cms alternative? Heck I'd switch to a finsweet CMS-Web builder with no questions asked.
You guys are the best!! Amazing job here. I've just got a combo: the power of Attributes and a cms framework for a project which deadline is in January and that I've not started... yet. Now I know. Thanks again @Finsweet.
Really nice tools guys! Fantastic work! One thing I can't seem to find an explaining for in this video or in the documentation is having multiple category item to select like you show in your documentation. In your documentation you show it is possible to select different categories like "Park", "Paid tour" etc, but you have seem to forget to show how to implement it? Or am I completely missing something obvious? xD
Love the content and how RAW they're delivered, but I do have ONE REQUEST. Can y'all add CHAPTERS to your videos so we can navigate to the content that's important to us? Y'all cover a lot in this video WHICH I LOVE, but I'm specifically looking for the CMS Load discussion and how to implement with CMS Filter. *BTW* - I just built a website that I never thought I'd be able to by using Attributes. Super easy to learn and implement!! THANK YOU!!!
Awaiting the clonable implatiently however absolute stellar job at creating something that was missing, surely the webflow team is extatic too. You've truely found your niche, going to kill it moving forward no doubt. WIll be hopefully implementing the attributes ones I get the grasp in multiple projects. F'in Sweet.
Thank you for this. I would like to add the following: use radio for single reference and the checkbox for multiple. It took me almost a hour and a few tears to figure that out 🤣because if you mixed this up it just won’t work
F'in amazing!! Thanks so much for putting this together! The pacing on the video is perfect - feels patient and encouraging. Really will add loads of value to my project and looking forward to learning more about the Attributes ecosystem!
And one more thing: If you use Javascript in your list elements, it will only be loaded/rendered on elements that are visible initally. JS is not loaded/rendered on elements that become visible through CMS Load or CMS Filter. But this can be fixed, because Jetboost had this problem at the beginning too. Probably there must be some kind of command that reloads all scripts every time a filter, search or load function is used.
Howard Schultz, the CEO of Starbucks, was working for Starbucks once upon a time at the marketing department. I guess it wasn't called starbucks back then. Then he was fired because his ideas sounded too wild. Schultz set up another coffee shop, got an investment, and later bought starbucks. And made it what it is today. I wouldn't be surprised if Joe does the same thing on webflow.
Great set of tools! Implementing them is so easy. There's just one glitch that I'm facing with this: On Safari and Firefox, the filters work on first load, but if you refresh the page then they don't. Works well on Chrome though.
@@andreaso.1549 Got the fix for this. Remove any other forms from the page and this will work. Your page should have only one form block for the filters.
Does this work if you have more than 100 items in your collection? I'm concerned that since it's filtering on the actual page and not the collection, it won't include the items that are on the second page of my collection.
This is an amazing addon to Webflow!!! Thank you so much for this integration and great tutorial. I applied everything seamlessly to a Recipe Blog website. The only thing is that my client is getting submission data from this form. I've already applied the 'fs-formsubmit-disable=true' to the 'Form' element but it didn't change anything. Has anyone run into this issue?
I created a couple of filters on different projects and it works just great! I was just wondering if there is an option to show results only if all filters are selected. I work on a project where we want users to first choose all filters and then we display only one result that matches what they selected. Thnaks!
Amazing video. Used this to build out a browse experience on my site. Any tips on how to make a collection list + filters on mobile? This doesn't scale well on smaller screens. Thinking to nest the filters UI list within a sidebar but can't figure out how to do that if you have any tips!
Love the simplicity ❤ However I can't get highlighting a searched term to work. Searching works and I've applied the [...highlight="true"] to the search field attributes. I looked at the cloneable and it looks the same. Anyone got any suggestions?
OK #1 I RE-implemented everything on my current site I'm building that had used finsweet tools with the new Attributes in under a few hours and It was so easy!!! I love it so much. Question on this video though, you mention "there is no delay" when it filters, is there a way we can add a delay so that the content fades or animates in? In my case multiple items I click still load the first result and it's not very clear to the user that the filter is working.
Hey Jennifer! Great to hear this. You can adjust the duration the filer duration in ms. The example right now is set at 0. I've just changed to it to 50 to show the fade effect: cms-filter-example.webflow.io/. On your Collection List, find the attribute fs-cmsfilter-duration = 0 and change that to 50, 100, 200, or whatever!
This is awesome, Joe. New subscriber here!! Is it possible to filter if the items for the same collection are set up in different grids? Since they're all from the same collection, would the filter read each collection individually to find the right tags/labels and only show those on the screen, no matter what collection grid they're in? Or do all of the items need to be in the same collection grid in order for the filter to work? I hope I'm making sense...
Great update! Thank you for your dedication. Quick question: Can the module be modified so that the CMS list is not shown at the initial state? Also, regarding the filtering buttons, can this be set so that only one button can be selected at a time? Again, thank you for you and your team to bring this to the community.
Hey Andras. To select only one button at a time, use radio buttons! By default this element can only be selected one at a time. Works the same way in the filter system. We have had several requests for the list to start empty. It's on radar for a feature addition
Hopefully, someone can help me with this question soon. Why is he using different CMS collections instead of a single one? This makes the regular data import more difficult. Can this filter also be implemented if only one CMS collection is used? (i.e., filtering by different fields from this collection) Thanks for your answers!
FYI but CMS Combine and CMS Load does not seem to work together to properly break the 100 item limit. It only breaks the 100 CMS limit on the first database, not on the second. So e.g. if you have 150 authors writing 1000 articles total, and you want to combine them, and you put the author database first: you would get 150 authors (broke the CMS limit) + 100 articles (did not break the CMS limit). Respectively if you were to put the articles database first you would get 1000 + 100, breaking the first limit but not the second. Is there a workaround for this?
Hey Joe, love it! Question: is it possible to integrate it with Google Maps? I’m building a filter system where visitors can filter a location by street name. Not sure though how to build it yet in combination with your great Filter resource. Have you done something like that before? Any recommendations? Thanks!!
Hey! We are going to release a developer api for Attributes next year. This is going to allow you to write code on top of Attributes for implementations exactly like this!
I just noticed the page you are at doesn't get loaded into the URL query, so when you click on an article and then go back, it will take you to the first page. This would be terrible for a user :( - I tried adding "Show Query" and it only adds the filters but not the page you are at.
Update: I added attribute "Query Parameters" - which adds pagination query parameters like this “?4f82d9d6_page=2.” And it works great when there’s no active filters. If you are at page 20 and click on a blog post, it will go back to the same spot. Great! However, when you start adding filters, the URL seems good. But when you go to a post then go back, it will go to page 1. I believe cause It’s sort of still loading everything? Not sure. Is there anything I can do? I want users to not lose their filters and page numbers when they go back. That’s all I need for good experience.
Was it explained here how to design an empty state? I've been using attributes to do that in my own project, created div that should be shown when 'no results found', applied name and value to it. But it only appears when the div is actually visible on the page. When I put display to 'None' or choose 'Hidden', it doesn't appear. Please advise what can be done to make it work properly.
Even in 2024, this is the best webflow tutorial I have watched, thanks Joe & Finsweet!
I consider this an official Webflow release, that’s how good it is. I can’t thank you all enough!
It does provide huge benefit to Webflow users, but definitely not an Official Webflow release.
I cannot even express how grateful I'm to the Finsweet team for all these amazing functionalities. I could have never achieved what I did without the high quality tools and content that you guys provide. Thank you so much guys.
You guys really are changing the economic game for a lot of people...love this no-code ecosystem
although it is powered by the code itself
Thank you Miqdam!!! Really appreciate that
this blows CMS library filter and pagination out of the water!!! amazing guys, thanks for all the hard work! im sure you know its greatly appreciated!
Thank you for the support Derek
Thank you Derek! Really appreciate this!
Wow! Thanks for showing the whole steps like adding a new search element to the existing page was so helpful to see. Also the clonable helps answer other questions of how all this should be structured within the form block.
This is just brilliant. This will save us so much time...and money!

I was struggling with filtering not working with pagination. So Glad I watched this.
What's mindboggling is how this is not baked into webflow.
Only just had time to watch this tutorial from scratch. Awesome as always. And the accents for NJ and NY didn't go unnoticed 😂.
Raw and unfiltered content! Thank you so much for letting me decide for myself how much detail I do or do not want to sit through!!! I didn't scrub through a single second, and I hope you make all your walkthroughs like this one!
Thank you Timothy. 🙏🏼
I am now officially a Attributes maxi - thank you for the great breakdown!
This is GOLD, well done thanks Guys!
😎🚀
Diligent. Patient. Inspirational. Invaluable. You’re all that and more Joe + Finsweet.

Thank you, Finsweet team!!😍😍😍😍😍
🙌🏽- Happy to give back to the community
I've been at it with the mighty and powerful Webflow since 2018 and this is the most powerful thing I've learned. Cheers, Finsweet!
I'm gonna play with this! Damn, it opens up so many possibilities! Mad lad
This is just the beginning. Let us know if you get any ideas. Finsweet.com/vote
wow.. this is the best filter solution I've seen, for the Webflow!
I just love you guys. The cms-filter is such a joy to use - and it just works. Could you guys please take over webflow?

Very very important video on complex filtering in webflow.! Thanks very much @finsweet ! Much appreciated. Cant thank enough haha !!!
Thanks for all the help in getting us past these roadblocks.
You guys are the best!! Amazing job here. I've just got a combo: the power of Attributes and a cms framework for a project which deadline is in January and that I've not started... yet. Now I know.
Thanks again @Finsweet.
Awesome Albert! This is great to hear. Thank you for the great comment.
Thank you! Love this. BTW: Awesome intro music!
Glad you like it. thank you.
Thank you so much for your effort on putting this out. Great resources and training!
thank you
Amazing tools, so easy to use, brilliant. Can't wait to try this. Thank you so much! 🙏
Let us know what you build with it
Find myself returning to this great walkthrough again and again for different projects. So much value here. Thanks!
It's not outdated? My worry is that tech moves fast and this may not be relevant or proper to use anymore.
Really nice tools guys! Fantastic work!

Used the filter all over my website and it works so good and is so easy to use!! Thank you!
You saved me!!! I love FinSweet!
How cool is that!! Gonna apply this for the first time on my project tomorrow.
Thank you for this. I would like to add the following: use radio for single reference and the checkbox for multiple. It took me almost a hour and a few tears to figure that out 🤣because if you mixed this up it just won’t work
Joe you are a legend! I will share my projects with you too and give you credit. 🤩
Life saver.. God bless you guys!!
Amazing!! Thank you so much!! 🤩🤩
You are most welcome
This is awesome!
WOW! I am feeling so incredibly accomplished! Thank you for this fantastic video and moving at the speed you did!

Wow! Thank you so much for this video and all the effort you guys put in to help the Webflow community. :)
Just amazing! You saved me, guys!
you have no idea how much you helped me! thanks alot! keep up yr good work :)
Amazing tool and top-notch walkthrough! Thank you.
Thank you kind man) you are the best in these spaces))))

Just found out this the hard way...
Amazing, been waiting for this from you guys. Super excited to try it out! Does this work with eCommerce CMS?
Hey Vincent! Yes, it does! Let us know what you think
Hey, can you do a tutorial on the range slider! Please!
Yes! Working on it. Go ahead and copy more examples from Finsweet Extension. Is there anything specific you would like covered?
great video
That's so amazing!! Thank you so much for everything you guys are doing!
Thank you! We appreciate the support

absolute legend!
Can you please set up the chapters for this? Would make it much easier to navigate
This is soooo valuable! Thanks a lot for this
Great video, very clearly explained. Love it 🔥🔥🔥
Wonderful tutorial !

Has anyone found a solution for this?
Does the fs-cmsfilter-field work for a multi-reference field? I can get it to work for a single but not multi.
Hi Kyle, yes this does work with multi-reference. What is not working about it? Is it a native Webflow nested collection?
Hi, this is very very helpful, thank you. Is there a way I can make the search run only is you "hit enter"? Or maybe to add a little load time?
This has been really helpful! Does this also work with Weglot or the new Webflow Lokalization? If anyone has tested it
Am I the only one who is completely fascinated by this, building it all and when the site is published and I press the checkbox nothing works? 😄
