Created filter in Smart Search does not appear in dropdown

Post by irenuyam » Thu May 16, 2024 10:13 am

Hello.
We are currently trying out Joomla 4 before updating our Joomla 3 site.
I created "Search" menu using Smart Search. Then, I created a filter and configured it in the menu.
But when I test the search menu with advance search, the filter dropdown appears without the filter that I created.
Can anybody help?
Thanks.

To my knowledge the filters in the Smart Search are regarded as preset filters that can be used in the menu item.
The filters in the advanced search can be found in the Taxonomies page.

Where can I find the Taxonomies page?
I wanted to have a filter for the Advance Search of the plugin but I can't seem to get it to work. I mean in the dropdown the ones (Tags and Articles) I selected don't appear.

Check the "Content Maps" page in the backend.
