Hi
I have a view that show results from custom post type in archive page
here is the link to the page:
hidden link
* sorry, the page is in Hebrew.

the problem:
I can't use the same taxonomy to filter the archive results and to let the user filter from these results to drill down to more specific area,
for exmple:
my view shows only events with area taxonomy of israel, now i want the user to use the filter form in the sidebar to filter the preview to see only events from south area of israel(israel parent area already filterd by the view setup)
how can I achieve that?

Hello,

Yes, it is expected result, in the term "Israel" archive page, it can not display posts of other term, for example posts with "USA"
term.

As a workaround, I suggest you create a taxonomy view to replace the "drill down menu",
for example, create a view, list terms of taxonomy "area", in the view's loop display archive page link:
