Just a short question: I’ve rebuilt a collection page to the V2 of Finsweet Attributes, and cut up the list into 3 different segments, with a Webflow Tabs component, in order to have a better user experience, load time and bandwith usage.
This means I’ve had to triple the filter section as well, which ultimately didn’t give any problem since I could give each section a filter-instance name.
The only problem is that I’m not getting the active filter tabs to work. I’ve tried different positions in the page, inside and outside the filter form block, but to no success. I’ve also copied the wrapper from the cloneable to make sure I didn’t forget anything, but again no succes.
Does someone know if this error could be addressed to the fact that I’m having three filter instances that modify the results of three collection lists? I’m having this thought since the active tag doesn’t need to be addressed to a filter instance. Would be great if someone can shine a light on this.
Read only below, active tag wrapper is already on the page “Collectibles temp2”.
Follow the same process for each instance you have by changing the value to the appropriate number for the respective instance for the tag items.
I tried setting this up in a personal dummy site and adding the instance attribute to the filter element, list element and tag element does solve the use-case and shows the active tags accordingly for each tab.
Sorry for my late reply, but that did the trick! Thank you so much, tags are now live, so user experience is improved by this implementation.
Question that is related to this: one of the reasons I wanted to imply this, is that the filters are memorized by the browser, so any page reload keeps the filters applied instead of resetting. I was hoping that these tags would be visible as well, but they’re not reloaded, so this still can be confusing.
Best solution would be to setup the filters in a way that they’re reset at page load, but can’t find anything about this in the docs or on the forum/elsewhere, any suggestions?
In case, you want to show the active filter with the appropriate tags after a page reload, you could apply the custom attribute fs-list-showquery="true" to the collection list elements where you have already set the attribute fs-list-element="list".
This will save the applied filters to the URL and when reloaded, it will keep the filters active as well as show the selected options via the Tag field.
That is so clever, saw the option but didn’t connect it to my problem. Thanks a bunch, now users will at least see some tags when they return to the site and don’t see the full list. Thanks a lot!
