[](#groupby)

A Craft plugin (Twig filter) for grouping entries.

Note: I have no plan to update this plugin for Craft 3. See , which can do the same thing, but also much more.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

- `param 1`: Attribute to group by, in dot notation
- `param 2`: Group un-grouped entries by a key. Defaults to `false`, meaning un-grouped items are removed. These entries are always added to the end of the returned array.

```
{% set allEntries = craft.entries.section('blog').find() %}
{% set allEntriesByCat = allEntries|groupBy('myCategoryField.slug', 'unGrouped') %}

```

Examples
--------

[](#examples)

In it's simplest form, the `groupBy` filter works like [Craft's native `group` filter](http://buildwithcraft.com/docs/templating/filters#group).

```
{% set allEntries = craft.entries.section('blog').find() %}
{% set allEntriesByYear = allEntries|groupBy('postDate.year') %}

```

However, `groupBy` can also group by nested objects:

```
{% set allEntriesByCat = allEntries|groupBy('myCategoryField.slug') %}
{% set allEntriesBySection = allEntries|groupBy('section.title') %}

```

And you can even get really crazy if you want:

```
{% set allEntriesByNestedCat = allEntries|groupBy('myEntriesField.myCategoryField.slug') %}
{% set allEntriesByMatrix = allEntries|groupBy('myMatrix.myEntriesField.dateField.localeDate') %}

```
