This article explains how to create a smooth experience for users by linking metadata types, such as categories or tags, to filtered content pages using dynamic URL parameters.

## Dynamic Pages

Dynamic pages work by passing a unique identifier (ID or Slug) of a content set, model, or metadata value through the page URL when a user clicks on an element in a list.

This method is commonly used with the **Metadata List Block**, **Set List Block**, and **Model List Blocks**. That value is then used on the destination page by a **Set View Block** or a **Model View Block** to filter content dynamically based on the ID or Slug in the URL.

Let's take a video list and a video gallery as an example, and walk through the process from a user's perspective.

### **A list of possibilities**

On the **Videos** page provided with the Helpful Hands Tour Theme, there is a Set List Block with the Click Destination on the Design tab set to Video Set (/video/:slug). 

Once a visitor clicks on a set in the set list, they are taken to the /video/:slug page with the slug of the content set in the URL. 

### **Destination Page**

The page in your CMS, which in this case is the **Video Set** page, contains a **Set View Block** filtered to the ID or Slug in the URL. You'll notice that there is only a single video set page in the Helpful Hands Theme. This is because of the dynamic parameter in use, meaning you don't have to make a page for every content set in your CMS.

```
/video/:slug
```

The "**:slug"** part will be replaced with the content set's name.
