I've also cleared cache at both site and server levels.
I used the taxonomy_advanced option, as I mentioned in my initial post. Screenshot-- https://share.cleanshot.com/z78qX8
1. See screenshot for selected taxonomies https://share.cleanshot.com/wk0lZn
2. As you can see in this second screenshot, the categories count is empty yet selected in the screenshot above https://share.cleanshot.com/vPUWlt
Thank you
Resolved: Initially, I duplicated a field and changed the field type. Then, when I added a new field type and selected one of the file types, it decided my challenge.
I have the challenge posed in the original question from Anja. My permalink is /sample-post/, yet nothing seems to work.
Thanks. I will give it a shot
