List Webpart, Document Library and Dynamic Filters
Hi All.
I am trying to use a List and Dynamic filter to display documents related to the topic.
The part i don't link (and i know it can cause confusion with most users) is that if the click on the category name - for example "DR & emergency process, it opens the items card
so we need to click the circle to see the list of pages
about 4 years ago, a colleague created something similar but that looks a lot better, and all i need to do is click on the category and it displays the list results (you can see the circle is not even there)
I can see that on the Filter list a different view was created, but even though i try and try, and even when i copy paste the format - I cannot replicate.
is this even possible or things changed that much in the last few years?
thank you

Hello MVCuser
it's looks like an custom development from your colleague. And yes, the time is running and things will be change.
Another good solution is to use PnP Modern Search WebParts, you can build search based solutions with filters or connecting results webparts together. You can see and download PnP Modern Search here: https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/usage/search-filters/

- Thank you Dave, Yes, it is a custom view, I copied the code (JASON) but it does not work.
The search is good, but would not work for this, since you will need to have a key word or know what you are searching for.
Using the filters as done by my colleague will allow you to filter one list, based on another list.
thanks anyways for your help.Hello MVCuser
that's not true.
With the PnP Modern Search WebParts you can...
1. Search a term (Search Box) https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/usage/search-box/
2. You can use filters based on your search results, like in your case (Search Filters) https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/usage/search-filters/
3. Or you can connect more then one Search Results WebPart https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/scenarios/Connect-to-a-search-results-webpart/
Best, Dave
