Views Autocomplete Filters

Autocomplete functionality for node titles and text fields.

The autocomplete results will be the results from the view.

Requirements

This module requires that the following modules are also enabled:

• Views

Installation

• Install this module using the official Backdrop CMS instructions at https://backdropcms.org/guide/modules.

• Configure a View from the Views page under Administration > Structure > Views (admin/structure/views).

• Configure an exposed text field filter and check Use Autocomplete checkbox in the exposed filter settings.

Tips & Tricks

• To work as you wish you have to make the right choice for the operator of filter field, most likely to use "Contains"

• For referenced entities (entity reference, node references, term reference) use referenced entity fields for the filters with the right relationships.

• If you have more titles fields defined in fields and/or filters the correspondence between field & filter must be right. For example: if field is title_2 then also the filter field should be title_2.
