Hello, I would have liked to know how to do a search filter on one of the fields (custom or taxonomy) of a relation publication.

Let me explain :

I have an "A" post type which is linked to a "B" post

The "A" post have field : "a-field-1", "a-field-2" and "a-field-3"
The "B" post have field "b-field-1", "b-field-2" and "b-field-3"
In a page, I display (view) a list of "A" publications with a search filter above.
I manage to use the fields of the "A" publication to filter, that's okay. May how can I have a post "B" field (example: b-field-2) to filter post "A"

In my view I manage to display the fields of the publication but linked I cannot put a filter on them. Thank you for your help

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

The thing is that you can build the custom search (add a front-end filter using the custom field, taxonomy) for the post type you set your view to query.

Having said that, if you set your view to query post type "A", you can only add frontend filters using the field that belongs to post type "A" that is: The "A" post have field : "a-field-1", "a-field-2" and "a-field-3"

You can not add another post type "B" fields. This is a limitation and this is a known feature request but to raise your voice you can raise a new feature request:
