Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager/issues/409

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When you add a lot of hosts to the Proxy Hosts page it becomes quite long to find the host you are looking for.

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. A way to put similar or related hosts in folders.
  2. A search field.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I could instead use different accounts but that is kinda a hassle.

Nice suggestions :) When the UI moves to a React framework the search field, filtering and sorting will definitely be there.

Folders would be real nice. And if you could add custom nginx directives to a folder that will be applied to all hosts that it contains.

Went to add this same basic thing as a feature request, searched and saw this so figured id post this here!

Even just some way to sort them by alphabetical or domain name would be better than nothing lol.

Also yea is there a ETA on the move to React? I totally understand if not...don't want to beholden to a time frame! Totally get it.

The filter can be an UI improvement by adding a dorp-down in the titles of the grid, and hide whatever item doesn't apply the filter.

In the other Hand I think Tags could be really useful, for example to group by environment, use, Locations, etc ( Production, Staging, Monitoring, Infrastructure and so on).
To filther this could be useful to have a search box above the titles of the grid.

To Filter we need to start typing, this would bring a list of posible tags, and when we select one it's applied. Something as ConfigHub does

I hope this grain of sand helps in any form. Regards.

Is there any updates regarding this? Would be nice to be able to group proxies based on domains, or local dns records etc. Currently it just dumps it all into a long list, which makes it difficult to manage/organize if there's many records.

Why try and discourage folks from expressing interest in something... Let them ask and move on. The literal worst case scenario is they keep bumping a thread.

Brother. Im not here for drama, but let's be real. This topic has been created 6 years ago where it was said that it will be added when the UI moves to React, and it still doesn't have groups. So what makes you think it will be added at all? Honestly curious.

Never said it was. Also not gonna argue over this though. I don't even use NPM anymore. Have a good one dude, and just try and only talk if it's actively constructive.
