Filter by category so that only those locations are shown on a leaflet map?

User post filter based on tag etc

Hi Phil, at the moment L&L doesn’t include a native way to build faceted searching/filtering. You’re right that the pagination option uses ajax to modify what’s being displayed after the page has loaded which I believe is the same process used by most faceted search/filter plugins. While there isn’t currently native functionality for this, we’ve used L&L on some of our own site builds to create something like this using FacetWP, which we’ve roughly documented here. Basically, you’re using FacetW…

Basically, the two approaches I’ve seen people use on this forum involve either using FacetWP (requires some PHP tinkering) or creating links that have URL query parameters like mysite.com/?category=type1 and then using the Url tag’s query attribute to modify your L&L template based on the value of the parameter in the current URL.

I hope that’s helpful for you!
