This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The customer wanted to enable users to filter archives on their website hosting academic texts, similar to how search results can be filtered. The customer specified that they needed the ability to filter texts by various criteria like publication year and language when viewing a specific category of texts. While they could easily set this up in a search view, they were unsure how to implement it in an archive view.
Solution:
We guided the customer to utilize the "Screen Options" tab available when editing the archive. By expanding this tab, they could enable search sections that are typically used when editing a View. This feature had been previously introduced in a pop-up when they first created a custom archive, which they may have dismissed.
The customer was advised to explore these options to achieve the desired filtering functionality for their archives.

Hi there
When editing your archive you can expand the Screen Options tab at the top of the page and it will enable you to expose the search sections that you are familiar with when editing a View.
(When you first create a custom archive there is a pop-up describing this, and I suspect you dismissed it a long time ago.)
