View Contextual Filter format for Block

Question

I have created a View on my /blog/ page for displaying blog articles. For layout reasons this view is in a block.

This view has a contextual filter for Taxonomy tid on node and, since it is a block, it has a default value of Taxonomy Term ID from URL. When I enter tids in the preview box it works.

However, how do I format this in the url? /blog/1 /blog/term/1 and /blog?tid=1 all return 404 pages. How do I put the tid in the url?

Answer 1

Mainly contextual filter works with /blog/page/[contextual filter id] e.g. /blog/page/2

By default its hard to pass the contextual filter id to a block, but you can do it this way

If you have url blog/page/2 then you can set this as shown in the image(3rd argument is 2 that will be passed to view block ), also add necessary relations accordingly.

Hope it will help you.
