I’m building an app where the content type is work instructions. Work instructions are divided into departments meaning each department has a bunch of work instructions. In my homepage, I included a search box where we can search for departments. In the seachbox it is showing production production(1) assembly assembly(1) @NigelG Please let me know how to remove the repeated department names in the searchbox. > **[Bubble Editor - Jadenkid](https://bubble.io/page?type=page&name=home_page&id=jadenkid&tab=tabs-1)** > > Build stuff without code and launch a startup without a tech-cofounder! Bubble is a visual programing language. Instead of typing code, use a visual editor to build applications. ---
