Hi guys,

I have a taxonomy vocabulary called Sports. Contained within it I have the following hierarchy:

Hand Sports
--Handball
Full Body Sports
--Swimming

I'd like to construct a view that shows Hand Sport's tags. How exactly can this be accomplished? Any pointers appreciated.

Thanks.

There is a great tutorial on Node One on how to do this but unfortunately I can't remember which one it was - probably in the taming the beast series.

However it went something like this: through a view create a relationship with the 'parent term' and then use a filter to filter out terms with Null 'parent term'. That will give you the parent terms 'Not Null' will give you the children terms. I think that's right.

On my project I've actually decided to split my taxonomies into 'main categories' and 'subcategories' with a 'term reference' field in the sub categories to create a relationship between them - this seems to give me a lot more control.

Please post again if you need me to clarify more - it would be easier to help on Mnday when I'm back in front of my Mac

I don't get where I can filter on Vocabulary parent term like you suggested.

Thanks
