Hi,

is it possible to achieve a multi select dropdown like this one in the Views's search ?

Thanks

Hi, it looks like this is a taxonomy filter that combines a dropdown, a search field, and multiple checkboxes options. Views doesn't offer this type of complex taxonomy filter, only simple select fields, radios, checkbox groups, and select multiple option fields. This type of advanced taxonomy filter would require custom development. Unfortunately there is no public JavaScript API available for search filters so it would fall outside the scope of support we offer here in the forums, per our support policy: https://toolset.com/toolset-support-policy

I suggest reaching out to an independent contractor or development resource to integrate this type of filter with Views.
