Scope Filter

In Decidim, points can be assigned to a scope in various ways:

  • By an administrator, specifying a scope for the component or the space
  • By a participant, while creating a meeting or proposal
  • By an automatic process that assigns a scope based on the geolocation (see Automatic Scopes)

Decidim Geo filters points by scope, either when participants filter scopes from the web platform or when they click on shapes.

Only Scopes Linked to a Geo-Shape Are Available
If points are linked to a scope that does not belong to a geo-friendly scope type or is not linked to a shape, it will not appear as a filterable option.

Empty Scopes Are Not Displayed
To avoid filtering empty scopes, only scopes with points are available in the scope filter.

Scope Filter Is Hidden if No Scopes Are Available
The scope filter option is hidden if there are no available scopes.
