Drupal makes it very easy to output all content on the system that is tagged with a certain term from a vocabulary, for instance by simply pointing the browser to an URL like this one: http://drupal.org/taxonomy/term/2

What I would like to do is to display not the terms, but the different vocabulary. Let's say my site has three vocabularies and I would like a menu that looks like this:

- Display all content by category
-- Category 1
-- Category 2
-- Category 3

Building such a new menu item is very easy, but I can't seem to find a URL that simply outputs a clickable list of all the terms in a vocabulary - clickable meaning that when you click on 'Category 2' you get a list of all the terms in category 2, where each term then is a link taht takes you to, for instance, /taxonomy/term/2

Would I need another module to make this happen or is there something like this in the Drupal core?

Thanks for your help!

The solution lies with the Views Module. Filter by what you want, fiddle around with taxonomy menus the way you like.

Other possible solutions could include (Not too sure though) the Catergory Module as a replacement for the defautl vocabualaries and taxonomies or the Taxonomy Menus Module.. Not too sure if they're specific in the functionality you're looking for, but worth a look anyway.

Thanks! I had a look at the Views, but it does not seem to do exactly what I want (or maybe I just missed the right configuration). I created a page view that outputs its content as an alphabetical list - that worked fine. Unfortunately, if I then add a field with the name 'Taxonomy: Terms for Category 1', Drupal outputs a list of every node tagged with a term from 'Category 1'. What I do want instead is a list of all the terms in category 1 and only if the user clicks on one of the terms, then they should get the list of all the content that is tagged with that term. Any ideas?

There is a module, unfortunately I can't remember which one, that does add a "taxonomy/vocabulary/xxx" function. Go through the various Taxonomy modules, it should show up.

Thanks! It is called taxonomy_list and does exactly what I want.
These forums are always very helpful, even for people like me who on occasion miss the module they are looking for!
