Problem: How to display custom taxonomy in custom post admin?

Solution: You can add a taxonomy column to your CPT's admin screen, by selecting "show_admin_column" check-box in your Taxonomy's edit screen (Toolset -> Taxonomies -> Edit Taxonomy). This adds a column showing attached taxonomies next to post title.

I am trying to: display custom taxonomy filter drop-down on custom post type admin. My custom post type is neighborhoods. My custom taxonomy for this post type is districts.

I visited this URL: hidden link

I expected to see what I normally see at this url: hidden link

*Screen shots attached

There is a categories drop-down that allows me to filter posts by category.

Instead, I got: There is no districts drop-down to allow me to filter posts (neighborhoods) by category (district).

Generally, you can add a taxonomy column to your CPT's admin screen, by selecting "show_admin_column" check-box in your Taxonomy's edit screen (Types -> Types & Taxonomies -> Edit Taxonomy). This adds a column showing attached taxonomies next to post title.

However, to add a filter like default post type, you much go through a custom coding effort. Following articles discuss and provide solution in details:
