# Configure the Order of Filters

You can change the order in which different groups of filters appear in the sidebar.

To configure the order of filter groups

1. Go to the Find home directory.
2. Open `config.json` in a text editor.

3. In the `filterOrder` section, modify the order of the array options to the order in which you want them to appear. You can also add a hyphen (-) as an array item to add a space between two groups in the list of filters.

   For example, the default order is:

       "filterOrder": ["metaFilter", "indexesFilter", "datesFilter", "geographyFilter", "documentSelectionFilter", "-", "parametricFilter"]

   where

   `metaFilter` | is the filter search box to allow you to filter the list of filters. See Enable or Disable the Filter Search Bar.
   `indexesFilter` | is the list of data indexes (databases) for your data.
   `datesFilter` | is the list of date filters.
   `geographyFilter` | is the list of location filters.
   `documentSelectionFilter` | is an option that allows users to manually deselect documents to exclude them (or to deselect all documents and manually reselect the documents to include).
   `parametricFilter` | is the list of parametric fields. You can also modify the order that these parametric fields are displayed by updating the `parametricOrder` parameter. See Configure the Order of Parametric Fields.

   You can add the filters in any order. For example:

       "filterOrder": ["metaFilter", "-", "parametricFilter", "-", "indexesFilter", "datesFilter", "geographyFilter"]

   If you do not include one or more of the filter groups, Find lists it at the end, after the specified groups.

4. Save the file, and then restart Find to apply your configuration changes
