Hi,

From the kit, I add this in album.yml, it’s work 😍

```
  home:
    type: checkboxes
    options:
      🏠: sur la home

```

For my home template  
`<?php foreach ($imagesPage->children()->filterBy('home','🏠')->listed() as $album): ?>` is good

Now, I would like to filter like that :

```
type: pages
headline: Projets
parent: kirby.page("images")
size: medium
query: page.filterBy("home", "🏠")
info: "{{ page.home }} "

```

But it’s not OK. Any idea ? Is it possible ?

May I ask why you want to store an emoji in your content file?

It’s look clear and usefull with a single line :  
`info: "{{ page.tags }} {{ page.home }} | {{ page.images.count }} image(s)"`

Are you using the pages display plugin? Because you cannot filter a standard Kirby pages section using a query?

This will work:

```auto
type: pagesdisplay
headline: Projets
size: medium # only makes sense with layout: cards
query: site.find("parentpage").children.filterBy("home", "🏠")
info: "{{ page.home }} "

```

  photography:

    query: pages.index.filterBy("home", "==", "🏠")
    extends: sections/albums-home
    status: listed

```

I found this, I will try your version.

In general, it’s never a good idea to use the [index](https://getkirby.com/docs/reference/objects/site/index#details) if you can avoid it.

So stupid, I try with

```auto
site.find("parentpage")

```

Thank you for the plugin trick and more !
