Tell us what you are trying to do?

On an e-commerce site (woocommerce + woocommerce views) i created a many-to-many relationship betwen Obras (woocommerce products) and Artistas (post type wich is the "parent" of Obras). I created a view to show the list of products and I want to know if it's posible to filter (query filter) them by a "parent" taxonomy (Categories in this case).

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

There is no feature available to filter the view by parent taxonomy as the thing is that - you can add the frontend filters to your view/block-view for the post type to which the view/block-view is set to query.

The workaround would be - what if you add the same taxonomy to your child posts, so, when the parent post is get saved/updated, you need to assign the same taxonomy terms to your child posts. Then you can add the taxonomy frontend filter for your child post type.

Hi Minesh, thanks for your reply. I was trying to avoid to do that because i don't want to have to repeat the same field but, as i thought, it's the only way to achive what i want. It would be great if you can put a feature request for something like this, something like a LEFT JOIN in sql where one can get some items based on a parent attribute/taxonomy in a relashionship. Thanks again for your time, have a great day!
