People List Filters

By default, a People List Page shows all of your people sorted by last name. However, you can choose to show a smaller set of people by restricting the list to certain filters such as showing only the Faculty of the Psychology department or just the people in the Molecular Research Laboratory Group. You can also group people together by any of the filters, order them by Last Name or Job Type + Last Name, and choose what filters you will let your readers access.

Note: Filter options are an "or" setting within each group. This means it will show people who have any of the terms you have selected, not all of the terms you have selected. Between Filter Groups is an "and" setting -- it shows everyone who belongs to the chosen department(s) and the chosen job type(s).
