The Search Bar widget and the A-Z Filter widget work together to help users perform more granular searches.

Whatβs the difference between the Search Bar widget and the A-Z Filter? Can I use both?
The Search Bar widget comes built into GravityView – it allows you to search using keywords and filter entries based on the fields in your View. The A-Z Filter allows users to filter entries by letter. You can use both of them on a View.

Updated translations
Developer Updates:
Removed legacy query overrides in favor of exclusively relying on GF_Query. This may, in theory, affect some custom code. If it does, it will stop filtering values. If that happens, please let [email protected] know.
Added: gravityview/az_filter/collation filter to override collation for the letter comparison query. This is helpful when the database interprets multiple letters as the same due to collation. For example, in Polish, L and Ε. This functionality requires Gravity Forms 2.4.3 or newer.
Added: gravityview/az_filter/anchor filter to modify the anchor ID added to the end of the letter filter links. Return an empty string to remove the functionality.
Deprecated: gravityview_blacklist_field_types filter. Use gravityview_blocklist_field_types instead.
