SORT BY Feature for specific Values.

Recommended Posts

Site URL: https://wenmint.info

     Hello! I'm currently building one of my first full websites, and I had 2 questions regarding some features I'd like to implement, but not really sure how to go about it. Its an NFT database for all upcoming NFT projects, so users would come to the site to view projects and get more information on them. that being said, on the right I have the information for each projects listed under the tabs like 'project size' 'mint price' 'mint date' etc. I'd like there to be a way to organize these projects, from top to bottom, based on those values. so essentially a SORT BY dropdown feature, that allows users to sort by projects based on those 3 values, 'mint price' lowest to highest, highest to lowest, 'mint date' soonest to latest, latest to soonest, and 'project size' biggest to smallest, smallest to biggest. I'm not very familiar with coding, but I was curious if there was a sort by feature or organization feature I could implement that would allow me to make those custom values to be sortable.

       After speaking with customer service, it seems as if coding is the way to go. This will be my first time doing this, so I will take all the help I can get. (After this, the next roadblock is integrating a LIVE Twitter/Discord Follower Count for each project, so that I do not have to go in there everyday and update each project, since these numbers are constantly changing and need to be up to date, I was thinking along the lines of utilizing Social Blade, but not sure how to go about that either)

 

Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions, very new here, and would not be against partnering up with a dev to help me finish this, it will generate some decent income once it's all said and done.

I'd like to insert a "sort by date" and "sort by author" feature, in additional to the alphabetical (A-Z, Z-A) default I currently have.

Squarespace doesn't have a native sort by date or sort by author function, but there is a third party solution available called Universal Filter that works with several Squarespace Collection types. If you need more information, please provide a link to the page on the site. If the site is password protected, please also share the public password with us so that we can access the site.
