In this guide, you will find out how to build an alphabet filter specifically for the Listing Grid<\/strong><\/a> displaying users. The solution is suitable for cases when the users\u2019 list needs to be filtered alphabetically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You might notice that the Alphabet Filter<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>from JetSmartFilters <\/em>only works with posts and products, and there is no native way to apply it to the users\u2019 Listing Grid <\/strong>at this time.

Set the Data Source <\/strong>to \u201cManual Input\u201d and click \u201cAdd New<\/strong>\u201d in the Options List <\/strong>area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"radio<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Add options, with each representing a letter of the alphabet. Values <\/strong>should be presented like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
