Hi, I have a question to ask.
Is there a possibility to create a single taxonomy that filters across all custom post types? A sort of global taxonomy not assigned to an individual post type but allowing to be added to all or some of post types. For example, to add cities and allow uses to filter products available for a particular city before actually filtering the product categories and other product-related, minor taxonomies.
Thanks.

Sorry, I missed the field where I can select post types to use with the taxonomy. The issue is resolved.
