Search & Sorting

Section titled “Search”

Full-text search is enabled by default. Visitors type in the search box and results filter in real time as they type.

How search works

Section titled “How search works”
  • Debounced — waits until the visitor stops typing before filtering
  • Searches across all visible text fields
  • Works alongside taxonomy filters — search within filtered results
Section titled “Showing or hiding search”

Control the search box in your embed code:

options: { showSearch: true }  // or false to hide

Sorting

Section titled “Sorting”

Sorting lets visitors reorder results by different fields.

Configure sort options

Section titled “Configure sort options”

In Configure > Filters & Sorting:

  1. Set a default sort — how records load initially
  2. Add sort options — visitor-facing dropdown in the toolbar

Each sort option has a field (Name, Date, etc.) and direction (A-Z or Z-A).

Hide the sort dropdown

Section titled “Hide the sort dropdown”

If you want a fixed sort order, hide the dropdown. Records still sort by your default.

Pagination

Section titled “Pagination”

Results are paginated. Visitors can:

  • Navigate with Previous/Next buttons
  • See total count (“Showing 1-20 of 150”)
  • Change items per page (12, 20, 24, 48, or 96)

Default items per page is set in your embed code with options.itemsPerPage.
