Taxonomy term relationships to taxonomony terms (terms with term reference fields) [#1374944]

I had a view (with Views 3.0-rc3 and ctools 1.0-rc1) of taxonomy terms with relationships to other taxonomy terms. After updating to Views 3.0 and latest ctools 1.x-dev, those handlers got lost. It's possible to recreate taxonomy-node relationships, but I can't find a way, how to relate taxonomy terms to other taxonomy terms.

Simple explanation of my view:

Vocabularies "Levels" and "Coursebooks"
"Coursebooks" include term reference to "Levels"
View to list fields from "Levels" and fields from related "Coursebooks"

Is it possible to do that in the new Views? Am I missing something?

My old view:

$view = new view;
$view->name = 'course_levels';
$view->description = '';
$view->tag = 'default';
$view->base_table = 'taxonomy_term_data';
$view->human_name = 'Course levels';
$view->core = 7;

I'm struggling with the same issue when updating from RC3 to 3.0 final.

I'm having the same issue. My view is unusable this way so marking this as major.

@czigor You can downgrade to RC3, that will fix your problem temporary

Comment #4

SandraL commented 22 December 2011 at 19:40

Having the same issue with this version. Rolling it back for now.

Comment #5

burlap commented 26 December 2011 at 11:58

Version:

7.x-3.0

» 7.x-3.x-dev

Just installed the current dev version of Views to confirm the issue is there too. Still can't import my old view or find a way to create a similar one with this rewritten taxonomy support.

ThomasH commented 27 December 2011 at 09:37

Having the issue too, also getting this error

Notice: Undefined index: or in views_handler_filter_numeric->admin_summary() (regel 263 van \sites\all\modules\contrib\views\handlers\views_handler_filter_numeric.inc).

jeff.maes commented 19 January 2012 at 11:49

It seems Views 7.x-3.1 is a fact. Anyone knows if this problem still exists?

Comment #8

czigor commented 26 January 2012 at 12:24

In 3.1 this problem still exist. I cannot relate taxonomy term A to a term B referenced by a term reference field on term A.

I had the relationship available and used this relationship in the field without any kind of problem.

Maybe it could be that this problem is indeed already fixed in the current dev version. So update status.

I have checked it with a cleaner install and it worked. So let's mark this fixed.
(Just for the record: On the older site it's still not working. I can add a relation between the term and its image field but not a relation between the term and its term reference field. It just does not appear in the relations list. )
