Taxonomy List: Displaying Lists of Terms
Drupal 7 will no longer be supported after January 5, 2025. Learn more and find resources for Drupal 7 sites
Introduction
The Taxonomy List module is for displaying the terms (or, optionally, nodes) under categories with their descriptions. The user can select the number of terms to display in each row, and assign the HTML attributes to the display cell, image, and the description text.
Installation
Standard module installation applies. If you want to have pictures associated with the terms, install the Taxonomy Image module.
Settings
The settings page is at Administer >> Site configuration >> Taxonomy list. The page is fairly straightforward.
- Hierarchical - subcategories will be shown as a table inside their parent's cell.
- Flat - all terms will be listed at the same level in the grid.
-
Table - Show terms in a table (legacy method).
-
List - Show terms as a list.
-
Directory - Show terms as a directory of content.
- Vocabulary separator
- This is the character that separates multiple vocabulary names in the page title.
- List Mode
- Terms per row
- How many terms in the list to show on a row.
- Add "edit term" link
- If selected, the module will add an "edit term" link to the display for authorized users.
- Add "search for term" link
- If selected, the module will add a "search for term" link to the display for authorized users.
- Add RSS link
- If selected, the module will add an RSS link (icon) to the display for authorized users.
- Show children when clicked
- For parent terms, add "all" to the taxonomy/term path to show the content for children when the link is clicked upon.
- Optional information
-
- Show content types
- Displays a list of the content types for the vocabulary.
- Show related terms
- Sets whether or not to show related terms.
- Show synonyms for the term
- Sets whether or not to show synonyms for the term.
- Show parents of the term
- Sets whether or not to show the trail of parents for child terms
- Count content
- Sets whether or not to count the content types for terms.
- No count.
- Count all content types.
- Count by content type.
- Count by type, don't show zero counts.
If the Node Type Filter module is installed, then the content type counts will be shown as links to that type within that term.
- Hide terms with no content
- Do not show the term if there is no content using the term. This requires one of the counting options above.
