pbFilters

Renders a ready-made filter form for a constructor table. The fields come from the table definition, so the form follows the constructor instead of being written by hand.

[[!pbFilters? &table=`Products`]]

Parameters

Parameter	Default	Description
table		Required. Table name as it is called in the constructor.
namespace		Namespace of the component owning the table, when it is not pageblocks.
class	pb-filter	CSS classes on the <form>.
submit	Filter	Caption of the submit button.
reset	Reset	Caption of the reset link, which points at ?.
toPlaceholder		Put the output into a MODX placeholder and return nothing.
showLog		Print the reason for an empty form next to the output; manager-only.

Without table the snippet renders nothing and writes &table is required to the MODX log — with &showLog=`1` that line shows up on the page itself.

Which fields appear

Only the fields marked filterable in the constructor. That flag is per field, so the form is controlled from the same place as the table itself — adding a filter does not require touching the template.

Example

<aside class="filters">
    [[!pbFilters? &table=`Products`]]
</aside>

<div class="results">
    [[!pbList? &model=`PbProduct` &tpl=`productCard` &limit=`12`]]
</div>

Tables belonging to satellite components

pbShop and other satellites keep their tables in the same pb_tables, told apart by namespace. If a table is not found, pass its namespace explicitly.
