Was this feature removed? When I add a collection component the “show filter” option does not display under the “show search bar” switch. But for some reason I was able to see it a few weeks ago when I created the app. Even more bizarrely when I duplicate a component from the past I can see the “show filter” but after selecting the " - " option in the filter I cannot get it to return. You can tell from the video clip that I can duplicate it but for some strange reason cannot create it anew. ![Capture](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/5/6/567abd87a7c0dabd645e9b3891122f09c06287e2.jpeg) ---

I think its because ‘show filter’ has been replaced by the new in-app filter. Older versions of the component appear to still have ‘show filter’. That seems to go away if you select “-“ Possibly one day they will remove it altogether ---

> [@Eric\_Penn](#): > > I think its because ‘show filter’ has been replaced by the new in-app filter. I hope that’s not true because the in-app filter doesn’t provide automatic summaries and it would be a disaster. ![Capture11](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/e/1/e11dfc3dd23e8f88dd0115cc83112e6f97588bf9.jpeg) ![Capture12](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/c/6/c6dff77235e9d9a47a353e292791c28dd0136852.jpeg) summaries like the previous filter did. ---

Well I think it’s the case… at least that’s how it works for me. You could copy an old component or do a rollup + template with the new one. ---

This is correct. > [@Igal\_Y](#): > > the in-app filter doesn’t provide automatic summaries This is also true. @tristan @Ivo_Elbert Any chance we can once again display the total item count after filtering? This was a nice feature. ---

> [@Igal\_Y](#): > > It’s quite unfortunate and frustrating when a very useful feature is replaced by an inferior feature with downgraded functionality and also without warning or notice. The community did ask for multiple in-app filters for a long time, so this is a step in the right direction. Just need to have the numbers back and it would be even better.
