Filters position

[jh]

Hi

I have created a search form to use in a modular position as a search filter in order to place the filters to the left of the list.
I am now wondering if it would be better (or even advisable) to use the list filters themselves if they can be positioned elsewhere (I would ideally like them placed to the left of the list not above). Could someone kindly advise if this can be done (and perhaps also if it would be more advisable to do it that way rather than my own search form).

Kind Regards

You could do that with a custom list template. Copy the folder ...

components/com_fabrik/views/list/tmpl/bootstrap

... to some other name (like 'filters_left' or whatever). Edit the file ...

components/com_fabrik/views/list/tmpl/bootstrap/default.php

... and tweak the layout to wrap some divs around layoutFilters() and the main fabrikDataContainer div, styled appropriately.
