I have a custom flat taxonomy, which also has custom fields.

I have a legacy view (I don't think it can be done in blocks?) to display the taxonomies - hidden link

I want to add a search/filter to the top of the page, so they can filter by one of the custom fields.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

Your observation is correct and the taxonomy and user views are not supported in the blocks-based views editor.

While you can create a taxonomy view using the classic editor, there is no built-in feature to use term field search filters with it.

You're welcome to submit this as a feature request at:

For personalized assistance around a custom solution, you can consider hiring a professional from our list of recommended contractors:
