Better Exposed Filters

Configurer Better Exposed Filters

With Views, it is very easy to make a list of content. And it is also very easy to add filters that will be exposed to users to allow them to sort this content (by category, price, etc.)

Views only offers drop-down menus to create these filters.

Better Exposed Filters replaces filters exposed to users in Views. It allows to replace drop-down lists (select) by checkboxes or radio buttons. This provides better ergonomics especially in the case where the user has to make multiple choices. This avoids the ctrl+click in a list which is not at all intuitive. But there are also other interesting options:

Auto-submit: allows you to trigger the search as soon as an item is checked or selected.
Hide submit button.
Possibility to put the checkboxes in “inline”
Rewrite displayed text
Make lists “collapsible”: the user clicks on the name of the filter and the list of the filter expands. For example, clicking on “price” will display all prices.
