Custom filters are another way to help your customers find relevant content. Your content is already going to be searchable by category or authors (if you have added categories and authors), but what if you want to have your videos searchable by difficulty or length?
Maybe you run a yoga site, and you want to have filters for videos 10 minutes and under, 20 minutes and under, 30 minutes and under, etc.. Or maybe you want to have filters according to user fitness level. These are perfect reasons to create custom filters.
When you create custom filters, they can be assigned to collections and videos. To create filters:
Navigate to Content, then go to Organize and then Custom Filters, and click Add New.
Fill out all the details needed for it to appear on the Catalog, and once created, you can always come back and change the option titles or add new ones.
Lastly, head to your video or collection and make sure to assign the appropriate filter value to it. Navigate to Content, then within Video or Collections, select the video or collection you want to add the filter option to, and click Edit. Go to Custom Filters and assign a value.
How do I organize my custom filters?
You can organize the position of both your Catalog Filters and the individual filter options in each filter.
Catalog Position
You're able to organize your custom filters by setting the order number for each filter.
You have the power to arrange your custom filters in any desired order with ease, whether it be alphabetically or otherwise.
Filter Options
Drag and drop the order of the filter options as you desire. The dropdown list of options for your filter will reflect the order you set from top to bottom.
