I have this error:

`Attribute fs-cmsfilter-field="pollinators" in list was not found. Add fs-cmsfilter-field="pollinators" in the children list on the page.`

I’ve already checked that those attributes exist on the classes: `filters_form-checkbox-label`, & `text-size-small` “bees” text in the list, but for some reason it’s not being picked up. What’s going on?

Hi @Susan_MacPhee!

You have 2 instances of CMS Filter in the same page.

Quoting the Documentation:

> “To use a second, third, or fourth instance on an attribute add -x at the end of the value of the element attribute. “x” must be a unique number. This unique number is how you link elements to instances. For example, list-3, trigger-3, and target-3 will all be connected to the same instance.”  
> [CMS Filter Documentation](https://finsweet.com/attributes/cms-filter)

Just add “-2” to the `fs-cmsfilter-element` values in the second CMS Filter Instance

Change “list” to “list-2” in the “related-news\_list-wrapper” Attribute and all the other CMS Filter Instances from the second Instance.

Also you don’t have the `fs-cmsfilter-element="list"` Attribute in the “plants\_collection-list”, that was breaking the filters.

I hope that helps, let me know if you need any help!
