Filtering folder items using tags

Pixpa has an extremely flexible and versatile method of enabling you to filter the folder sub-items. This is done by using tags. You can add multiple tags to any sub-item.

Your website visitors can filter and view the information/content present on the folder page. For instance, your folder is showcasing images of different categories, using tags, you can allow your website visitors to filter the images and view the images of a specific category (like animals, food, flowers, architecture)

This filtering is temporary so every time a visitor arrives at the folder, they need to filter and view the content.

See a folder with filtering tags in action.

In the example above, there are four tags: Art, Design, Illustration, and Photography.
