Is it possible to get a taxonomy filter when displaying as checkboxes to somehow nest? An un-nested list of categories is not nearly as useful. See attached screenshots. Thanks.

Hello,

There isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset Blocks/Views plugin, as a workaround, you can use option "order by group", it should be able to display the terms in the parent/child order, see my screenshot order-by-group.jpg

Thanks. I guess the best way to do this, unfortunately, is to use a select drop-down. Before I close the ticket, can you explain how I might go about removing "Uncategorized" from the drop-down? I had to turn off the "only show options that would yield results" because it doesn't show parent items in the drop-down. If possible, we could just make a global rule that uncategorized is always excluded from any drop-downs across the site.

I assume we are talking about the term "Uncategorized" of Woocommerce product category taxonomy, it is a feature of Woocomerce plugin.

I have searched it in google, found this blog post:
