Element Index

The inter­face in the Craft CMS con­trol pan­el that dis­plays col­lec­tions of ele­ments (like entries, assets, etc.) in a table or card for­mat with fil­ter­ing and search­ing capabilities.

His­tor­i­cal­ly, the Ele­ment Index pri­mar­i­ly showed ele­ments in a tab­u­lar for­mat, like an Admin Table, dis­play­ing rows and columns. This tra­di­tion­al view is still avail­able and use­ful for quick­ly scan­ning lots of data.

Craft 5 intro­duced Ele­ment Cards as an alter­na­tive way to view ele­ments in the index list­ing. You can tog­gle between these views using a con­trol at the top of the ele­ment list­ing. The Card view allows for a more visu­al rep­re­sen­ta­tion of your content.
