Taxonomy

With drupal 5 I not haved this type of url; (module used taxonomy menu)
now in drupal 6 I have this type of url;which is the advantage?

for the subterms is possible to change in /all but only if one use a Default path
and work only for subterms; so not for vocabulary;

but is possible to not have all the list in the url?

Hi all.

Using Drupal 6, I am looking to use a simple taxonomy association to set up an automated method of displaying "context sensitive" menus where only the parent/children with the associated matching term are shown in one (and only one) block.

So, for example, if my Primary menu/node set up is as follows

• Products
  • Product A
    • More about A
    • More about A
  • Product B
    • More B

Hi,

I'm pretty new to Drupal and not sure if this is the place to find help, but I'll give it a go :). My problem is that I want to use Taxonomy for categorising content and that I need to create overviews of the categories in different places (showing main categories with their coresponding sub-categories just below).

This is probably a clumsy title but I find it difficult to define my question exactly. This is my problem:

I have the following two vocabularies:

• types of organisations: libraries, archives, institutions, etc
• countries

I created a sidebar menu with the types of organisations as menu links, so there is a menu link for archives, libraries, etc.

have tried to implement a taxonomy page similar to what's done in this podcast - http://mustardseedmedia.com/podcast/episode31

unfortunately, my taxonomy_term_page.tpl.php file is not being processed.
did i miss anything? is there any hidden undocumented magic that makes it work?

Cheers !

Taxonomy Menu is in the middle of a complete rewrite. Speak now or forever hold your peace!

The new UI is complete. You can see a screencast here. Currently on the UI is complete. I wanted to get more opinions about how to proceed with the new API.

If there new features you would like to see in V3, add them to the issue queue now. I will go through all of the old postponed features and assign them to V3.

Rules of the Road

Please forgive me for the long winded way in which I am about to present this to you. I only wish to explain in full detail the reason for this topic and question.

I have been developing a site for awhile now and I was recently attempting to use taxonomy filtering, for example "term/103,305" to create a combo search feature. However, for some reason when I attempt to combine the two term id's instead of it showing only results that are listed with both of the terms it's showing all of the results from both terms.

For example:

I am working on a website that ultimately will be available in several languages. It is also going to have a lot of complex CCK content types.

A lot of these fields will be CCK options fields, such as checkboxes, radio buttons and so on. Many of these fields will be usable for filtering and creating lists as well. Some of these options will be added to as the site grows.

What I have been thinking about is the best way to implement this to be flexible, efficient and at the same time make it easy to maintain and translations.

As I see it I have two options:

Hello folks,

I need some advice on how to structure a site that has photos of airplanes. Now say I want to have photos of airplanes that users can browse either by airline, manufacturer, or age? A traditional taxonomy structure would look as follows:

US Airways
-Airbus
--A320
--A330
-Boeing
--737
--757

American Airlines
-Airbus
--A330
-Boeing
--747
--757
--777

(Hypothetically speaking)

I'm considering developing a module to extend the functionality of TAC to role/field combinations. TAC works wonderfully for controlling access to whole nodes based on their taxonomy, but it's all-or-nothing; the module currently has no way of leveraging the per-field access control offered by Content Permissions.

I don't think the functionality belongs in TAC itself, as my proposed module is an additional layer of complexity that's specific to CCK content types.

I was wondering if anyone had any experience building something for automating readers advisory. My librarians are calling it "read-a-likes." The idea is that there is a list of authors. Each author would link to their page with links to other similar authors. You can see the example below.

If you like David Baldacci, then try:

William Bernhardt
Stephen J. Cannell
Linda Fairstein
Vince Flynn
James Grippando
John Grisham
Brad Meltzer
Kyle Mills
Robert Tanenbaum
Stuart Woods (Will Lee Series)

Been a while since I browsed around the taxonomy group and thought it a good time to write a bit about what has come of the Taxonomy Sprint in Chicago last year re: large taxonomies and term relations / term metadata with respect to the Encyclopedia of Life. We soft launched LifeDesks (http://www.lifedesks.org) whereby anyone may create their own. To get a sense for what's transpired and how we deal with taxonomy, check out a recent YouTube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QHSvYrP0O4.

The taxonomy image block is usually shown only when viewing a node (full page view). Is it possible to show it, when viewing the list of nodes of a certain taxonomy term?

The last month I've been working on some new features for the Taxonomy Manager. This new major release includes new features like an optional double tree interface (see screenshot), where you can display two trees side by side and perform operations between the two trees. The double tree interface supports operations to move terms in hierarchies, to add new translations and to switch terms between different vocabularies.

I'm curious if anyone has ever ran into a site or project where they went taxonomy crazy where there were TOO many taxonomies on a node?

3-4 Categories can be common and useful, but at what point do the taxonomies become a burden to performance? 10? 50?

Gut feeling says 5 or less would be optimal, but is it ok to have 10 or 20? I'm curious to get people's thoughts. If anyone has used a ton of taxonomies in a project I'm curious if it worked out for their site. Any links to articles/posts about the topic would be helpful too.

thanks!

Hi all

Been trying to figure this wried error message everytime a user uploads a file. I did ask in the drupal forums but no one seems to know what to do.

when a user uploads a flash game on the site, it has a error message above of it:

/home/content/X/X/X/'database username'/html/modules/taxonomy/taxonomy.module on line 70.

it now displays the error message twice in one page.
I did try to re-upload the taxonomy module with a fresh new one but no signs of the error message going away. Can other modules like views or CCK can cause this error?

For a drupal.org's list ordered by popularity, that is by usage statistics in descending order, see: Taxonomy modules. Currently, there are 218 contributed modules related to the core Taxonomy module, 134 of them with a Drupal 6.x version available.

Is there any way to have the vocabulary item listed in the top most portion of a taxonomy menu be an active link?

anyone?

Hi drupal !

I'm posting here to request a review of a module i'd just coded and that i would
like to submit on drupal.org. Before doing this, i would like someone to review
my module. Even if i'm pretty confident with my code which i've been testing for last
2 weeks, i would prefer others' advice.

About the module :
This module provides taxonomy based user control for user but unlike modules already
available on drupal.org with inheritance notion. For more information please read the
README (available below).

Thank you by advance.

Code is available here on github : http://github.com/baloo/taxonomy-access-user
Or as a tgz : http://github.com/baloo/taxonomy-access-user/tarball/master

I've been trying to wrap my head around this for a while and I'm running into a roadblock in terms of providing good usability to community members vs. correct information architecture. As an example, let's say I'm running a website about plants, and visitors can add articles about different plants. This is just a crude example to help understand the problem. When a visitor goes to create a new article, they can categorize it as follows:

Plant Part
- Color
-- Produce
