Your best posts are in there. People just can’t find them.
A blog page shows the newest posts and stops there. A reader looking for one topic has to scroll, guess, or click into a category archive and lose the page they were on. The longer your blog gets, the more good writing sinks out of reach — and there’s no obvious way for a visitor to say just show me the tutorials without leaving.
The Post Filter block puts that control on the page itself. It’s a small bar you sit above a Post Grid — a search box, a category or tag filter, a reset link — and it narrows the grid live, in place, as the visitor uses it. No archive detour, no reload.
Setting it up takes about a minute. Drop the Post Filter above a Post Grid, choose that grid from the dropdown, and the search and filter controls inside the bar inherit the target automatically. Type into the search box or pick a term and the grid answers straight away — nothing to wire up, no shortcode to remember.
See it working
Both bars below are real — they drive the Post Grids under them, pulling from this site’s own posts. Search a word, pick a category or tag, and watch the grid narrow. Hit reset to bring everything back. Each bar is one Post Filter block wearing a different set of controls.
Search, a category dropdown and a reset link, in a row. Type a keyword or choose a category and the grid below narrows on the spot — Reset clears everything and brings the full list back.
Category as pills, plus a tag dropdown — two filters at once. The same block, with the category filter shown as tappable pills and a second Taxonomy filter added for tags. Reset is a filled button this time.
It’s all just blocks
There’s nothing to configure outside the editor. The Post Filter holds the search, taxonomy and reset controls; you point it at a Post Grid; the styling — label, control and button colours, spacing, and separate settings for phones and tablets — all lives in the sidebar. Change how a filter looks and every control in the bar stays consistent, because one set of controls styles them all.
Give your readers a way in
The Post Filter block ships with Flexa Block. Install it, add a Post Grid and a filter bar, and your blog gets a live search-and-filter the next time you open the editor.
