Categories for filtering


Userlevel 1

I’d love to hear from others how you went about defining the categories to use for filtering on your catalog pages.

We ended up not using categories for filtering as we wanted learners to be able to filter based on multiple “categories” - so we ended up going with Custom Fields for this purpose.

We are a FinTech company so have structured our custom categories/fields by:

  • area of the product
  • type of training/delivery method
  • version of software they are on
  • eventually we will expand to include role-based options

We are the same as Julie - we use custom fields to separate our content. We have them set by type of learning for our users to access. 

  • Learning Paths
  • Certificate Paths
  • Product Courses
  • Live Online Training
  • Support Articles

For our early implementation of custom fields to use in our catalogs, we went with 

  • tasks (implement, configure, or use) (this is loosely persona based)
  • tools (we have the UI, CLI, IDEs)
  • products
