Add the Ability to Filter Connection Request By Attributes When Viewing Requests Using Connection Request Board (Block)

Connection

Hello! Would be nice if Connection Request Attributes can be filtered when viewing Connection Requests in this page: https://rockrmsdemo.com/page/2635?ConnectionOpportunityId=1

The Why?

Group has this feature for Group Member Attributes. Since it is a list the ability to filter an attribute is simply logical, don't you think? We've created a connection that has connection request attribute that would select for topic or category and the connection would want to filter out those requests that selected a particular category or topic so they can invite those people to a dinner. Unfortunately, attribute is not in the filter.

Thorough Ministry Need Review:

You might argue that I can do this if I put the person to a placement group, yes, that can be a workaround. But what if my connection request is not designed to enable "Connect"? That feature is very limited and designed to a specific connection request like Serving Opportunity. Also, I cannot disable the ability for it to leave the request open when Connect button is clicked. Plus I cannot rename the button label "Connect" which is applicable to a particular connection request like Serving Opportunity. For other purpose of using Connections, it does not make sense to say Connect. Anyhow, placing people into a group would create another step for the Connector to go or do just to see a list of people when there should be an easier way to do it if Attributes can be filtered.
