9.3.0.0

Description

The new field type allows you to select an ordered list of items using a more convenient search dialog with extended filtering features (like facet search or search by a field).

The new field type supports the same data source parameters as Multilist With Search, but also includes:

• EnableSetNewStartLocation - allows dynamic selection of the search location. This functionality is available in the new field type by default.
• PageSize - used to enable paging. Is not required for the new field type as it uses continuous scroll bar.
• StartSearchLocation - doesn't support fast queries.

Compatibility

The release was built for:

• Sitecore Experience Platform 9.3
