Tags

This add-on for ExpressionEngine lets you create A-Z lists with great ease and flexibility. It also allows you to display channel entries sorted by alphabet and optionally filtered by first character, so you can display only entries starting with a given letter or number.

Other features include ignore words, so you can define words like “the” and/or “a” which will be ignored for sorting. Also, you can group numbers, so entries starting with a number are grouped together, either before or after the non-numeric ones. By default, the add-on looks at the entry title, but you can also select a custom field for sorting.

The sorting or grouping by alphabet doesn’t just simply look at the first character of the title or custom field. It will ignore punctuation, HTML tags and HTML entities. Also, accented characters are treated as their un-accented counterparts.

Hooks Used

If the add-on is an extension, and ties into ExpressionEngine's core files, it will use ExpressionEngine hooks. We are listing any hooks the add-on uses for developers to have an easier time locating other add-ons that they can reference for their own work.
