My test site: http://www.potteryguy.com has the Taxonomy dhtml installed and working. I'm running Drupal 5.1

My blocks and Syndication pages are working great however, my SUMMARY page is not updating or displaying my Taxonomy Terms or posts correctly.

For instance, I created a new vocab. called TOPICS

Under TOPICS I have 2 Terms: potteryGuy BLOG and How To?

I then assigned them 4 test posts each. The blocks page and syndication page both look great. The SUMMARY page however only updated 1/2 of the content and now refuses to update any longer. Take a look: http://www.potteryguy.com/taxonomy_dhtml is no longer updating.......

Any thoughts?

this is known issue. please search for patches in issue queue. otherwise - the solution is to clear the cache after creating taxonomy term/vocab

p.s.: Taxonomy DHTML is searching for a maintainer

Clearing the cache after updating - is a solution.

If you add line cache_clear_all('taxonomy_dhtml', 'cache', true);
in the start of the function function taxonomy_dhtml_settings() {
in the taxonomy_dhtml.module file, then cache of this module will be cleared, when you will enter the module's settings page.

But there should be a better way to defeat the caching problem.

new taxonomy_dhtml Cache Clearing in Settings Hack.zip3.49 KB

I'm having the same problem...

I have attached the modified version of taxonomy_dhtml.module which clears the cache when you enter the module settings, based on incognito's advice.

HOWEVER, how can I automate the cache clearing so each time a user adds a new term... the cache is cleared, as if I entered the setting page? I'm assuming I could put the same line ( cache_clear_all('taxonomy_dhtml', 'cache', true); ) somewhere else in the module?

Thanks,
Adam

This module is no longer being actively developed as it duplicates functionality that can be obtained through the usage of taxonomy_menu ( http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_menu ) and dhtml_menu ( http://drupal.org/project/dhtml_menu ).
