Advanced Filtering

Have precise controls over what entries are displayed in a View.

Controls what entries are displayed in a View based on the value of form entries, like “Conditional Logic” in Gravity Forms.

Show only the entries created by the logged-in user
Display entries that match a search value
Show entries by user role
Show entries in a specific date range
Filter entries based on the URL values passed to the current page

Add as many filters and conditions as you need!

Conditionally show or hide field values

Only show fields if an entry matches filters you choose.
