Pre-Filtered Link

Last Updated July 2025

Aggregated Landing Pages, like the list of Events landing pages, may have a filter option available for visitors. It is possible to generate a link, to be used elsewhere on the site, that will take visitors to the page with pre-selected filter/s already enabled, E.g. link with ‘comedy’ preselected. The link will have an extra parameter at the end that tells the webpage how to configure the web form when the page loads.

Unfortunately, the configuration for the link is obscured and different on all forms. Contact the College Web team and we will help find the right path or troubleshoot the link by looking at the source code.
