Make sure filter changes are separate events in the browser And please don’t punish my lexical limitations by reloading the page every time I select one box! I wan’t to see what’s in both without having to load the page twice on my poor internet connection. ‘Search by mood/styles/topics’ filters are a good option, but separate filters for ‘Rebellious’ and ‘Satirical’ is going a bit too much into minutiae. Kulture Shop has room for improvement, though. Kulture Shop displays filters in their original position as well as at the top In this case, there are only 35 items to browse, but it wouldn’t be manageable with more results. We’d be better off browsing their entire category of dresses and mentally noting what is relevant and what is not (this one is too short, this one is long-sleeved…).
Yet these are the filters on Chumbak’s online store. The language used to model these choices should be the language in the filter.įor instance, when going to a clothes shop, it’s unlikely we would ask for a ‘Fit & Flare’, ‘Shift’, or ‘Bodycon’ dress. Think the way someone would ask a shop assistant for a dress, or how a group of friends chooses a vacation rental home.
Use real world languageįilters should be modelled after the actual behaviour of users. It is frustrating to have the intention of selecting two or more filters, only to see the page reload painstakingly slow with each selection. This will allow the user to narrow down their search quickly and more comfortably.Īllowing multiple selections also works better for slower connections. Whether we know exactly what we want (we‘re interested in a restaurant that has tables outside, and allows pets, and has vegetarian options), or we only know what we don’t want (we’re not interested in a restaurant with loud music), it makes sense to allow for multiple filters to be selected at once. Allow multiple selectionsĭecisions might not be taken based on a single data point. This is particularly helpful giving the sheer number of items.Ĭategory-specific filters also have the advantage of being an education point for people who have less experience with the content being displayed. Myntra offers very detailed category-specific filters.
