List Manager Tutorial

Quick Start: publish a List Manager list in 5 minutes

The shortest path from a database table to a live, searchable page. This is the express version — the other tutorials explain every option in depth.

Prefer one click over five manual steps? The Quick Setup wizard builds all of this for you automatically from an existing table.

1. Register the list (1 min)

Components → List Manager → Add. Name it, pick your table in Database Table, Save. No table yet? Use Database Options → New table first.

2. Choose the columns (1 min)

Click Fields/Columns. For each column you want visible, open it, set a clean Name/Title and turn on Visible (Display tab). Turn on Include in search (Advanced tab) for the text columns. Save & Close.

3. Set the order and page size (1 min)

Display → add a Default order column; on Pagination set the page size (e.g. 10). Save & Close.

4. (Optional) add a filter (1 min)

Display → Filters → Add Items. Name it, pick the Field, set Type = Select. Save.

5. Publish (1 min)

Menus → Add New Menu Item. Type = List Manager → List Manager; on Options choose your list. Save & Close and open the page on your site.
