Filtering a listview with multiple Values for one column

Sometimes it is necessary to filter a list by multiple values on a certain column. In SharePoint 2013 it’s working using the UI, but in SharePoint 2010 it’s not. So in 2010 Version you could use the url query to filter a certain column using multiple values. The solution is simple and you do not have to use code or develop anything.

You can separate them by a semicolon and it acts like an OR.

The important part to add is:

?Filtername=Region&FilterMultiValue=West%20Germany;North%20Germany

so in general:

?FilterName=yourfieldname&FilterMultiValue=yourvalue1;yourvalue2

The output:

The nonplusultra Wildcard possibility:

The important part to add is:

?Filtername=Region&FilterMultiValue=*West*

so in general:

?FilterName=yourfieldname&FilterMultiValue=*yourvalue*

It’s also working with multiple values. The output:

It’s really cool, cause it also supports “*” so it’s like a wildcard filter.
