Create list pages for the Basic Page Type
Unlike Events, News, or and other structured content types, there is not an automatic filtered list page for Basic Pages. You can still tag and display Basic Pages to create lists using the Lists Paragraph.
Basic Page Lists currently only support filtered versions of the basic page list. You must add an argument as metadata to generate a list. Learn more about adding metadata to a basic page.
Add Basic Page terms to your site
To create categories and labels for Basic Pages start by adding terms into Basic Page Type vocabulary set.

Add metadata to your Basic Page
Use the Page Metadata section on a Basic Page to categorize it with a term and page description.
- To categorize your Basic Page, select the appropriate term from the Basic Page Type dropdown.

2. Add a Page Description. The page description only displays on list paragraphs, not the node page. This is an accessibility best practice. Without it, Siteimprove reports Content missing after heading on list paragraphs.
Display a List paragraph
To display your selected Basic Pages use a List Paragraph on the designated page. See Create a custom list filtered by taxonomy terms
- Use the List Paragraph to create a list of Basic Pages categorized by your chosen shared tag.
- Add your desired shared tag in Advanced Options > Arguments.
3. Click Continue and Save.
Inspect your work! The visitor will see a list of Basic Pages based on the term:
You can create additional list pages of each term. For example, “Projects” can be filtered further to “Botanical Flowers”, "Botanical Fruits", Botanical Plants".
These list pages can be displayed with interactive elements such as side navigation, buttons, and a call to action.
List options
There are three options for Basic Page lists.
- Default List. This is a list sorted in descending order by the creation date. This is handy for creating lists of recently updated pages.
- Card Grid, Alphabetical Title Sort (asc). This is a card grid sorted alphabetically by title.
- Card Grid, Creation Date Sort (desc). This is a card grid sorted in descending order by the creation date.
