Hi,
I am coming from http://drupal.org/node/271833 on D6. I couldn't find a depth filter working on D5, D6. My hopes are that D7 will have this!

My use case is I think very general. And because of the changes in D7 that terms are almost the same as nodes, I think the request has more urgenty.

I would like to be able to filter my view with contextual filter on term depth.
I have terms in one vocabulary with the following depth:

Continent (depth = 0)
--Country (depth = 1)
----Area (depth = 2)
-------Village (depth = 3)
----------Accommodation (depth = 4)

I would very much like to use panels/views to arrange my content pages.
I would like to show the panels pages as different variants.
Variant Continent
Variant Country
Variant Area
Variant Village
Variant Accommodation

In these variants I would like to show views depending on the term-depth.
So on Area for instance I want to show only the terms that have the depth of 2.

Can anyone help me how to get this working in D7 with ctools. panels and views please?
Thanks a lot in advance for your reply!

Greetings, Martijn

(cross posted: #1073170: Taxonomy: Term ID (with depth) : filter on term_node, not on node)
The behavior of "Taxonomy Term ID (with depth)" still exists in Views 3, but it is now called something different. Instead look for, "Content: Has Taxonomy Term ID (With Depth)". It's in the content not taxonomy section of contextual filters.

In my use case, in order to select nodes with the child of a given term argument, I had to do the following:
1. Create a term relationship (named it term).
2. Added the term ID with depth filter.
3. Views automatically also created a contextual filter for Term using the relationship created earlier. I deleted this.

The vocabulary can be controlled by specifying validation on the argument as well as in the relationship field.

I've the same needs of filtering Terms (view type : Taxonomy Term) so that I can retain only depth 1 terms.

I can't see how to use the solution given, since it seems to be applied to a Nodes view and not a Terms view.

Any solution to this problem? I thought it was possible in previous version of Views.

Same here.
Want to output parent term along with subterms on a term view

Well, I've used a custom modules in my case. I think this is a regression from older version of Views, except if it is on purpose, but why in this case?

+1
I also had to go with a code based solution to solve this, would love to see this feature again.

For those of you still following this issue or others coming here looking for an answer, the Taxonomy Term Depth module provides a term depth filter for Views. There's a stable release for D7 and 8. Just tested it, and it works great with my multi-depth taxonomy.
