Why the "Site Pages" filtering is not showing the custom properties added to the content type

Steel Contributor

I am working on a new communication site, and i have created  a new content type which have the built-in "Site Pages" content type as its parent, and i added this new content type inside the "Site Pages" list. and inside the custom content type i added three sites columns of type Managed Metadata which are linked to 3 term stores. and i set the 3 managed metadata columns as required. i added 2 modern pages and i assign them values for the managed metadata properties. but when i went to the AllPages.aspx view >> click on the filter icon, i only got those fields for filtering:-

so i am not sure why my managed metadata columns are not showing inside the filtering panel? is it a matter of time? as i have created the site around 2 hours ago? or there are some settings i need to follow? of course i want my chnage to get reflected for all users. as seems i can click on the view field >> click on "filter by" >> but this will get cleared if i refresh the page, or other user access the filtering panel..

@john john You need to click the column name from the List view and under "Column Settings" --> there is option "Pin to filters pane".

How soon will I be able to see this in the filter menu?

@Carolhosking After pinning column to filters pane, you should be able to see it in filters pane immediately.

@Carolhosking Is this a highlighted content web part? 

If yes and you want to use custom column created in library inside highlighted content web part filters, you have to map the custom column crawl property with one of the managed properties and then use the managed property in filter section.
