How does click-to-filter work?

Click any cell value in the table view. WISEROWS instantly creates a filter for that column with the "equals" operator set to the clicked value. The table re-renders immediately, showing only rows where that column matches. A filter badge appears in the toolbar showing the active filter.

Which field types support click-to-filter?

Click-to-filter works with text, select, number, boolean, and date fields. Text and select fields filter with "equals". Numbers filter with "equals" by default, but you can modify the operator to "greater than" or "less than" from the filter badge. Dates filter to the exact date. Booleans toggle between true and false.

Can I stack multiple click-to-filter actions?

Yes. Each click adds an AND filter. Click "Draft" in the Status column, then click "SEO" in the Category column — you now see all draft SEO articles. Filter badges stack in the toolbar. Remove any filter by clicking the X on its badge.

Does click-to-filter work in kanban and gallery views?

Yes. In kanban view, clicking a card field value applies a filter across all columns. In gallery view, clicking a card field value filters the grid. The behavior is consistent across all view types — click a value, see matching items.

How do I remove a click-to-filter?

Three ways: click the X button on the filter badge in the toolbar, click "Clear all filters" to remove everything, or click the same value again to toggle the filter off. The keyboard shortcut Escape also clears the most recently added filter.

Is there a visual indicator that a value is clickable?

Yes. On hover, clickable values show a subtle underline and a small filter icon appears next to the cursor. The cursor changes to a pointer. This visual cue helps users discover the click-to-filter capability naturally.

Does click-to-filter persist when switching views?

Yes. Filters are shared across all view types. If you click-to-filter "Draft" in table view and switch to kanban, you see only draft items. The filter persists until you explicitly remove it.

Can I convert a click-to-filter into a saved view?

Yes. After clicking values to build up filters, click "Save as view" in the filter toolbar. Give it a name like "Draft SEO articles" and it becomes a one-click saved view you can return to anytime.
