Advanced filters in the Content tab and how to use them
Six dropdowns, one search field and three sortable columns, explained
Overview
The filter button at the right of Search all flipbooks opens Filter content, a panel with six dropdowns: Privacy, Status, Type, Created by, Last updated and Labels. Choose what you want, then press Apply. A flipbook has to match every dropdown you set to stay in the list.
Filtering, searching and sorting are three separate controls on the same screen. This article covers all three.
Filtering the list
Click the filter button at the right of the search field. Filter content opens beside it, with every dropdown on All.

What each one narrows by:
- Privacy: who can open the flipbook. Publishing options explains what each setting lets through.
- Status: whether the flipbook is published. A draft carries a Draft mark under its title.
- Type: a single flipbook or a bookshelf.
- Created by: the teammate who made it. The same name appears under each title as Created by.
- Last updated: a time window. It starts on All time.
- Labels: the label on the flipbook. See labels.
Apply puts the shorter list on screen. Clear all sets every dropdown back to All.
Searching by name
Type into Search all flipbooks above the list. It covers every flipbook in the workspace, not only the folder you are looking at.

Sorting the list
Click Title, Modified or Views to order by that column. The list arrives sorted by Modified, newest first.

Additional tips / FAQs
- Why has a flipbook vanished from the list? It has to match every dropdown you set. Clear all brings the whole list back.
- Where do the label names come from? From the flipbook itself: More options, then Labels.
- Can I search one folder only? Search all flipbooks covers the workspace. Open the folder in the rail to see its contents on their own.
- What does the number beside Flipbooks mean? How many publications the workspace holds. Filtering does not change it.
