I am using Ubercart and want to display products by term from a vocabulary called 'catalog'. The catalog vocab has a two-level hierarchy to group similar terms together, eg:
-
badges
- special badges
- discontinued badges
The View needs to take the term from the path and I can do this using a contextual filter 'Content: Has taxonomy term ID (with depth)'. I have a View and this works fine using term id but I'd like it to use the term name instead.
That is, this works correctly (where badges: tid=4, special badges: tid=8):
- shop/4
- shop/8
but what I really want is:
- shop/badges
- shop/special-badges
How can I do this?
My current View is displayed below.

I don't know the details off hand, but I guess you can use terms instead of IDs after adding a "Taxonomy terms on node" relation to the view.
Thanks for commeinting, @Olafski - in fact it turned out to be simpler than I thought and I now have a solution.
Having selected contextual filter 'Content: Has taxonomy term ID (with depth)', I then noticed the Filter value type 'Term name converted to Term ID'. I selected this and now it works as I wanted.
I'll add screen shots of the relevant config for my own benefit but also in case anyone else has this problem.
