How to implement dynamic loading for large dataset attribute list?

[Christos]

Hello everyone!!

Do you have any idea on how to add a large dataset, for filtering attributes, so they won’t delay loading? i want to mass import around 50,000 options for a select field on sorting table of a listing category

Thanks for your time

Hi,

We are planning to implement this improvement.

If your dropdown has a large number of options, it can be optimized with custom code. If you’re comfortable with coding, please refer to this topic where our developer has provided general guidance on improving dropdown performance:

I want to add "Country" filter in search form

Sorry, we can only provide general developer guidance, unfortunately we can’t help with reviewing custom code in detail and implementing custom features as this is outside of our support scope. We plan to add the AJAX search feature to drop-down fields, but there’s no such option yet. The officially recommended solution for this issue is using Geolocation, then you can rely on the map provider API instead of creating a custom plain list of locations. Please note that for the “source” parameter …

Hope this helps.
