Relume blog components use link blocks and Finsweet requires form elements — Relume does not provide documentation for creating filters using the link block structure, and Finsweet does not provide documentation for how to set up CMS filters without forms. Relume references other Finsweet functionality, but not basic filtering (see image)…
I’ve now gone through Finsweets written documentation and a 1 1/2 hour video… spent maybe 5 hours in total and I can’t even get the most basic category filtering for blog posts to work. I’ve also searched for CMS filtering in the Issues channel here, and while there are a lot of questions about this, nobody else seems to think it’s strange that your blog template category filters don’t correspond to Finsweet filtering … ❓
If there is a particular Relume blog component I can start with to overcome this, please let me know. As of now I’ve deleted the component for a project as it turned into a bit of a mess as I was trying different options.
My preferred solution would be to use Relume’s component library as it’s designed without having to redesign or restructure everything, but I don’t understand why it’s been designed not to work with Finsweet in the first place?
Is there a way to create basic View All and category filtering using the structure provided by Relume? And should this be built on the CMS Blog Categories template page for best practice or can it be a separate Blog page?
