Drupal 7 - Display articles using taxonomy in URL?

0

I'm having a hard time with this Drupal 7 question.

I have a view which lists articles. Each article has a category, which is a entity referenced taxonomy term. When I visit a URL, my taxonomy should match something in the URL. For example, if I go to news/localnews, there's a taxonomy option whose value is news/localnews.

What I'd like to do is display only articles which contain the same taxonomy term as in the URL. I have no idea how to do this and I've been working on this problem for about 5 months. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

All I really want to do is add a block (or several, on most pages) which just displays a list of articles which match the taxonomy in the URL.

Can this be done? If so, how?

Thanks!

In your views, on the Advanced tab, add new Contextual filter enter image description here Choose Content: Has taxonomy term ID (with depth)enter image description here

Set Depth to 1 and select Provide default value with Type : Taxonomy Term ID from URLenter image description here
