RootA root filter is probably the most important filter. It is the top-level filter from where the filtering, or the browsing experience starts. It is not affected by the selections in the other filters and clears any selection, when it's selection changes.
tip
A common setup for a root filter, is to use a single-select display (e.g. links) and not have a clear option.
tip
We suggest putting the root filters at the top of your filters list.
#
StatusA filter can get 3 statuses.
#
PublishedA published filter is loaded to the filtering module and can listen to incoming requests.
#
ListeningA filter in that state is not loaded in the filtering module, but is listening to incoming requests and returns results. You can use urls pointing to filters in that state, inside your content e.g. Pointing to an author's articles. or to have other filters be relevant to that (e.g. a category page) when this is implicitly selected.

UnpublishedAn unpublished filter is completely inactive.
