The Shows List template outputs an alphabetical searchable, paginated index of Shows (Movies, Special Events, and/or Programs) on your site. The list is alphabetical. If you'd like to have a chronological list of all your showtimes, you can use the Schedule template, or create a custom ordered list of Featured Shows using the Flexible Template.

The front-end output of these Shows is controlled in the editor's **Show Listing Options** section, which has the following options:

- **Shows Per Page** — Defaults to 10 Films & Events per page. Adjust this number to increase or decrease how many Films & Events show up on each page of the index.
- **Show Types** — There is a checkbox next to each of the three Show types: Movies, Special Events, and Programs. Each Show type that is checked will be included in the Films & Events List, while any Show type that is unchecked will be omitted.
- **Exclude Shorts?** — Unchecked by default. When checked, only Movies that are not Shorts will show up in the Shows List.
