Filter items
Narrow the items list with structured filters
Filters let you show only items that match specific criteria — by status, publish state, dates, or collection field values.

- Archive
- Draft
- Published (date)
- Updated (date)
- Created (date)
Collection field filters
Wicked CMS also builds filters from your collection schema field types, including:
- Text fields — Contains, Starts with, Ends with, Is empty, etc.
- Option fields — Is, Is not, Is set, Is empty
- Switch fields — Is, Is not (Yes/No)
- Date fields — date ranges (from/to)
- Reference fields — Is, Is not, Is set, Is empty
- Multi-reference fields — Contains, Does not contain, Is set, Is not set
Filter operators
Common operators include:
Manage active filters
- Click a filter chip to edit its condition
- Remove individual filters from the chip menu
- Click Clear all when two or more filters are active to remove every filter at once
Combine with search
Filters work together with search. Items must match both the search query and all active filters.
