In 'Search activities' you can find all activities and conduct a selective search or use one of the sorting options.
Sorting options
Sort on date: Activities are by default sorted on date, displaying the activities with the nearest date in the future first.
- first shown are the activities that do not have a start date but do have an end date. These are sorted based on their end date. So the sooner they end, the sooner they are displayed
- secondly, the activities on a date and activities with a start date will show in the overview. including the activities with multiple timeslots, based on the first upcoming slot.
Sort on distance: The second sorting option, is to sort activities on distance from your location.
When no location is set, a pop-up will appear to ask for your location.
- first, the online activities will appear;
- secondly, the activities based on location.
Filter options
Setting your filters in the backoffice
In the backoffice it is possible to change the order of your filters and hide them.
From our data, we have learned that users tend to ignore the filters when there are more than five. By hiding less important filters, you increase the chance that people make use of the filters when needed.
To adjust the filters go to "Settings" in the side menu and click on "Initiative settings". If you don't see this setting, please contact GoodUp support to enable this for you.
In the initiative settings, go to the third tab "Activity search filters". Here you can:
- adjust the order of the filters by dragging them into a different position;
- select which filters should be highlighted or hidden behind the "More filters" button;
- delete filters which shouldn't be visible at all.
