 Correction, for B), just use the "extraParams" option[5] of the livetable
 macro to specify you extra "WHERE" clauses, no need to create a custom
 results page.
 I know there was one, I just could not find it at first :)
 Thanks,

 Hello,
 thanks for the help.
 Indeed what I want to do is the "B" option.
  As you can read from the LiveTable Macro's
documentation [1], the
 "queryFilters" parameter is used to specify which (already registered)
 query filter name 
 I think the documentation is missing the (already registered) part - this
 is
 what threw me off. I suspected it was something like this too, but could
 not
 figure out how to register a filter.
 Now it does look like the extraParams option is what I'm looking for, but I
 can't get that to work either.
 The documentation says
 "all the objects that have a specific value for a property ("extraParams"
:
 "&yourProperty=yourValue" - note that in this particular case, yourProperty
 has to be declared in the $columns array). "
 Here's what I did:
 #set($columns = ["Version", "Name", "ReleaseDate"])
 #set($columnsProperties = {
    "Name": { "link" : "none" }
 })
 #set($options = {
    "className":"Development.Resources.Version
 Information.VersionInformationClass",
    "tagCloud" : true,
    "rowCount": 20,
    "extraParams" : "&Version='4.0'"
 
You need to be aware that these paremeters are actually URL parameters that
are sent to the livetable results page with javascript (when loading the
livetable, switching to the next page, filtering, etc.), so you don`t need
to quote the value.
Assuming that "Version" is indeed the name of the property you want to
filter by (and it's not the pretty name of the property; please check that.
It would usually be lowercase. It needs to match both the class property
name and the column name), it should just be:
"extraParams" : "&Version=4.0"
Note: If you need to have more complicated values in the extraParams
option, you will need to escape the values by hand.
Example:
"extraParams" :
"&$name1=$escapetool.url($value1)&name2=$escapetool.url($value2)", where
$valueN would be "Value/with?URL&specific%characters".
Thanks,
Eduard
})
  #livetable("4_0_VersionInformation" $columns
$columnsProperties $options)
 Which would seem like it follows the documentation, but the list comes out
 empty.
