This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: I have a custom search View with multiple filters. I am trying to show and hide some filters using CRED conditional groups, but it's not working.
Solution: CRED (or Forms) conditional groups cannot be used in a View's search filters. They can only be used in Forms. At this time there is not an easy way to show and hide some filters based on the selections in other filters.
Views has a feature called "Limiting Filter Inputs According to Available Results". When this configuration is chosen, the filters will respond intelligently each time a new filter is selected, so that only the filter options that would produce results are enabled. Unfortunately it is not as customizable as conditional HTML.

So I am trying to create a filter search,
So If a category is chosen then some other fields are shown,
Then if a name chosen then other fields are shown
My form so far is:
[wpv-filter-start hide="false"]
[wpv-filter-controls]
<div class="form-group">
<label>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]Categories[/wpml-string]</label>
[wpv-control-post-taxonomy taxonomy="category" type="select" url_param="wpv-category"]
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]City[/wpml-string]</label>
[wpv-control-post-taxonomy taxonomy="cities" type="select" url_param="wpv-cities"]
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]tag12[/wpml-string]</label>
[wpv-control-postmeta field="wpcf-tag12" type="select" url_param="wpv-wpcf-tag12"]
</div>
[cred_show_group if="($(wpcf-tag12) eq 'ahsans')" mode="fade-slide"]
<div class="form-group">
<label>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]tag3[/wpml-string]</label>
[wpv-control-postmeta field="wpcf-tag3" url_param="wpv-wpcf-tag3"]
</div>
[/cred_show_group]
[cred_show_group if="($(wpcf-tag12) eq 'lucys')" mode="fade-slide"]
<div class="form-group">
<label>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]tag3[/wpml-string]</label>
[wpv-control-postmeta field="wpcf-tag5" url_param="wpv-wpcf-tag3"]
</div>
[/cred_show_group]
[cred_show_group if="($(category) eq 'cakes')" mode="fade-slide"]
<div class="form-group">
<label>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]tag3[/wpml-string]</label>
[wpv-control-postmeta field="wpcf-tag4" url_param="wpv-wpcf-tag3"]
</div>
[/cred_show_group]
[wpv-filter-end]
