Adding a filter section

[Joykareko]

Can we add a filter section to the list, so we can easily filter by #worldwide or #USA or whichever instead of scrolling down to the full list?

Great idea, filtering is something I'd love to have help with.

That said, the search field will work for region term.

I like to implement that. But we have to decide where the filter input will be shown.

[dougaitken]

What thoughts do you have @GabrielModog - I'm open to ideas.

[GabrielModog]

Currently we can search by company. My idea is add another filter below this one.

[dougaitken]

How do you think this would be populated @GabrielModog? I ask as the region is fairly standardized but there are some edge-cases with single country or some timezones.

Would your filter parse the list and offer the existing entries as filter options or would you provide a smaller specific set?

[GabrielModog]

I don't know if a get it what you trying to say...

So I was thinking rewrite the current filter code to make reusable as possible to maybe add others filters in the future.

For now I thought to make a radio button to switch the type of filter (by company or country). When I made some test by adding a new input don't look so nice. So to me the solution is a radio button to switch the type of filter.

@GabrielModog Can you open a PR with what you have? It'll generate a preview URL so I can take a look.

This is a tricky scenario so I appreciate any ideas people have 😀

@Joykareko what I'm thinking we can do this by a formula.

COUNTIF(range, criteria)

eg. COUNTIF(tblFilterList[FilterList],[@Country])=1

"Tell me if i'm wrong", Thanks.

@kb-s Thanks for the comment, your solution is intended for a spreadsheet, that isn't how the data is stored here.

@dougaitken Thanks for the response.

Closing this, the recent update to the site makes filtering a lot easier, it's not complete but it's a start.
