Link view helper¶

A link view helper is provided to generate links to search result pages including a search word and filters.

Parameters¶

page (integer): Target page
piVars (array): pivars (sword, filter[…], page, sortByField, sortByDir, resetFilters)
resetFilters (array): Filters to reset
keepPiVars (boolean): Should the piVars be kept?
uriOnly (boolean): Returns only the uri.
section (string): Anchor for links

Additionally the standard HTML universal attributes can be used (like class, dir, id, lang, style, title, accesskey, tabindex, onclick).

Setting filters¶

In order to use filters with the link view helper you will need to know the filter UID, the tag of the filter option and (if you use a checkbox filter) the UID of the filter option. Please see the example below.
