Firstly let me congratulate and thank you on an excellent job!!
You mentioned you are working on filter by group/type functionality, when do you expect to release a version of the package which includes this. I am currently working on a site which has school and candidate member types and I need a way of administrators being able to view only school or candidate member types.
I should have something in the next couple of weeks. Working on similar functionality for a client at the moment (or will be very soon). We have a hard-coded filter specific for our membertype, so amongst other things I need to take that and make it generic/dynamic.
I'm also looking at incorporating Member Export functionality.
Thanks for the reply. I might need to implement something myself sooner than that, are you able to give me any pointers on the best way of creating an additional section and/or trees that would then show say School Members and Candidate Members?
Please can you let me know when you have managed to add the filter functionality for member type to the component as I can probably wait a couple of weeks until this is done and it saves having to re-invent the wheel.
Hi Graham,
I was finally able to spend some time on it today and have managed to improve the responsiveness with a larger number of members, and am currently looking at the filtering implementation.
It's important to note that at the moment this is a dashboard listview and doesn't have the functionality to limit the view to a particular membertype. However, if you need to do this, you'll need to edit the view controller in the App_Plugins directory - if you look at the dashboard.config file you'll find the path to the MemberListView template and it's corresponding controller. Also, take a look at the extended member resource file - you'll notice that you have the capability there to pass a MemberType to the backend API - this is probably what you're looking for.
I'll have a new package soon with speed improvements and hopefully the filtering/export functionality as well.

Hi Graham - just a quick note to say there's a new version up, and this one includes filtering by MemberType amongst other things.
If you wanted to hard-code the membertype filter you'd need to get to the filter controller file and modify it there.

Hi Rob,
That is excellent news. I shall download and install it and let you know how I get on!!
Many thanks,
Graham
