This request is similar to: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/kickstart-development/

We're building a website that has the following hierarchical taxonomies:

Stores
-- Clothes
---- Men's clothes

We want to show the categories next to each other (horizontally), allowing the user to filter based on a category.

Ideally, if a category is selected (e.g. Clothes), all its subcategories (Men's clothes etc.) should show up (dynamically) to choose from, allowing the user to narrow down search results step by step.

With a lot of "hacking" in CSS/JS I was able to get a horizontal view of the categories (see attachment), but it would be great to see this functionality supported natively in Toolset. You guys mentioned in https://toolset.com/forums/topic/kickstart-development/ that it's in the list of requested features, but I can't find any follow-up on that.

Can you please build the requested functionality of filtering on taxonomies hierarchically within Toolset Views? Thanks in advance!
