How to Add a "Reset Filters" Button to Exposed Views in Drupal

Staff Reporter

Gurpreet Kaur's tip highlights a simple yet impactful usability enhancement in Drupal Views. When using exposed filters, users often struggle to clear multiple filter criteria manually. Adding a "Reset Filters" button solves this by instantly clearing selections and reverting to default results.

The blog outlines a no-code method via the Views UI. Enabling the built-in “Reset button” in the Exposed Form settings is sufficient for most use cases. Optional customisations include changing the button label or styling it with JavaScript for more control.
