I have a Vocabulary called Artists, which has a list of artists that are in the post.

ie: if I post a DJ Set by Richie Hawtin, I'd enter Richie Hawtin into the Artist field.

At the bottom of the posts, right now "Richie Hawtin" links to taxonmy/term/42

How can I change this so it'd link to artist/info/42 instead?

Drupal has a built-in module for aliasing paths: the Path module. Enable it and under URL Aliases create an alias from "taxonmy/term/42" to "artist/info/42".

But... it'll be hard to create aliases for all of your terms. Well, there is an automatic path alias module called "Pathauto"!

http://drupal.org/project/Pathauto - The Pathauto module will allow you to define a set of rules for automatically aliasing your paths.

  $vocabularies = taxonomy_get_vocabularies();
  foreach($vocabularies as $vocabulary) {
    if ($vocabularies) {
      $terms = taxonomy_node_get_terms_by_vocabulary($node->nid, $vocabulary->vid);
      $termslist = '';
      if ($terms) {
        print '<div class="terms">' . $vocabulary->name . ': ';
        foreach ($terms as $term) 
	{
		if($vocabulary->vid = 3)
		{
			$termslist = $termslist.l($term->name, 'artist/info/'.$term->tid) . ' | ';
		}
		else
		{
			$termslist = $termslist.l($term->name, 'taxonomy/term/'.$term->tid) . ' | ';
		}
        }
      print trim ($termslist," |").'</div>';
      }

    }
  }

Just added the if vid=3 bit, and does excatly what I wanted to do.

Thatperson: Your solution is fine unless this is being done for a module. URL Aliases aren't used to enter a module (menu call back).

Kaniz: where did you find this, and where/how are you using it? This may help me out on a problem.

note: should be vid==3 not vid=3, been programming in VB.NET for school too much the past while :)

Found this bit of code here: sort taxonony links ($terms) by vocabulary ($vid), and just added the if statement to check for the vocab ID.

This solution will be useful, as I'll have a few different terms that I'll want to link too differently. I put this into the node.tpl instead of having print $terms

You might also find this post helpful.

When coding a module, as I am, it is best to not mess with template code because you never know which template the eventual user will have.
