Tell us what you are trying to do?
I am wanting to use the post title as a filter drop-down but I could not find a way to do that, so I had to create a taxonomy for post titles. It feels very redundant and I feel like there should be a way to filter by post title.

Is there any documentation that you are following?
No

Is there a similar example that we can see?
"Series Title" filter on this page: hidden link

What is the link to your site?
hidden link

Front-end filters for post title are not supported, but I updated an internal request ticket about filtering by standard post fields to reference this thread.

I would suggest for post titles rather than use a dropdown filter you add a text-search filter that searches just the post titles.
