Views Active Search Terms

Works with both Drupal core Search exposed filters - displays active exposed filter search terms in a view header or footer - and Search API Facets - adding a facets summary item for the current active exposed search term(s) from a fulltext exposed search field.

Configuration

Views area plugin

• Open a view in the Views UI and navigate to the Header or Footer section.
• Add the Active search terms handler (listed under the Views Active Search Terms group).
• Configure the available options:
  • Label: Text displayed before the search terms (optional).
  • Search terms filter: The exposed fulltext filter whose value is displayed. Auto-detected from the view's filters when possible.
  • Show clear link: Whether to display a link to remove the active search terms.
  • Clear link label: Text used for the clear link (default: Clear).

VAST Facets Summary submodule

• Open a Facets Summary block configuration and enable the Show active search terms processor under Processor settings.
• Configure the label and the exposed filter identifier to match the view's exposed fulltext filter.
• The processor renders the active search terms as a removable chip, consistent with native facet chips. When a reset link is also enabled, it will clear both the active facets and the active search terms.
