I would like to ask how should I handle the problem that is viewed in the pictures.

When I use exposed filters in my EVA View, then a second "field" is being created inside the "Manage Display" page of the associated Content Type.

I can say that for specific situations it may be useful. But in my opinion, since Exposed Filters are above View's Title and View's Header, it seems to be annoying.

I would suggest to be one "field" or to split Title and Header too, in order to have a proper appearance.

Title: Exposed » Exposed Filters appear above the view title

Hmm...good point. Putting the filters as a separate item on the 'Manage Display' tab was recently added as a feature to give users more control over where the exposed filters are displayed. But you're right, we've regressed because you can't get the exposed filter in its normal place if you want it there.

I think the best option would be to have another setting in EVA part of views that gives you the choice of separating out the exposed filters or not. I'll see what I can whip together.

Here's a patch that makes the exposed filter separation optional. Give it a shot, let me know if it works.

Any chance to see that patch applied to the dev release? :-)

Oooo committed this a while back but forgot to push it. Give the bots some time (I think its 12 hours?) to create a new dev package and then please mark this as fixed if this functionality is working in the dev release.

Report back on any bugs / errors should you see any.

Ok, tomorrow I will download and check. Thanks!! :-)

Hi mkadin. I confirm that last dev version is correctly allowing to pass exposed filter just below the title. Sweet!! Thanks :-)

@mkadin, I am having the same issue. Where in the EVA field's view config page is this setting?

Found it:
Under "Entity content settings", there is an "Exposed Form as Field" option.
