Setting up Taxonomy so that subterms appear on parent term page
bjraines - October 3, 2007 - 00:24
i just dont understand why it is so hard to set up a parent child category system
take a term like "college planning " that has two child terms "9th grade" and "!0th grade"
if I make "college planning" a link in the side menu, if i click on it , how can I make a page that lists on the child terms.
i would like for this to be automoatic like an $arg in views. so that when ever i make a new menu link for another term the linking page will display the child terms just below it.
is this very difficult?
=-=
it may be worth investigating how the module that creates this type of things for "create content" pulls this off ? node.module maybe ?

Use /all after your term node address to list child terms too
You may want to check out this module http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_forceall.
It sounds like, when you go to the "College Planning" term node, which normally lists all items tagged with "college planning", you would like it to also list all items tagged with any "child term" of "college planning".
So, you would like to go to a single node and see all items tagged with a term and all items tagged with child terms. Right? There is a way to do that in Drupal, and this module makes it automatic.
Standard way -
www.yoursite.com/taxonomy/collegeplanning/ = all items tagged with "college planning"
www.yoursite.com/taxonomy/collegeplanning/all = all items tagged with "college planning" and any items tagged with any child term of "college planning".

I think bjraines wants child terms not child nodes appear on the parent page.
I want this as well.
I have a hiearchical taxonomy, and I want to display the child TERMS in sg like a tag cloud on the right hand side, so that uses can drill down not just to nodes but to the next taxonomy level.
Any ideas?

yes this has been very stressful for me and the only reason I even use Joomla sometimes
It is very clear that Druapl is an awesome Content Management Platform
if you want to manage your site as a blog or community or news site
it need sections and categories along with node ordering withing those
