hey there,
as the title says i want to create a view for a catalog handling multiple arguments using term names.
i really tried 100 different configurations using names. most times only the first arguiment gets recognized, other times the view is stuck in an infinite loop timing out.
i use the validation criteria "Term IDs separated by , or +" with the options allow multiple values.
however if i try to use "Term name converted to Term ID" as criteria i cant use the AND and OR operators anymore.
Any suggestions how to use the operations in conjunction with term names?
** Sidenote pulling in any taxonomy related relationsships didnt help :(((
here is my actual view using term ids, which by the way works like a charm:
$view = new view;
$view->name = 'taxonomy_view';
