I'm using drupal5.2 to build a community site for sharing documents (that are categorized into vocabulary such as Legal, Financial, etc.) with the public, sharing with groups, and tagging them to make it easy to search. I've installed, enabled and configured some contributed modules such as Taxonomy_term, Taxonomy_menu, Tagadelic, Views, but am not clear on how to expose some of these functions thru the theme UI.
For example, some simple features i need to expose are
- most popular tags for a given vocabulary (say within Legal); clicking on the tag should show documents for the tag
- allow users to add tags when uploading the document
- have a Group page that shows documents and members for the group
I've reviewed the Handbook, Videos and tutorial, but am not clear how i can expose functionality from these modules to the site.
Any pointers would help.
thanks
Kiran

Lets look at them in reverse order
Regarding a Group page, that can be a simple as listing content tagged with a particular term or could involve organic groups. Part of that depends on how you create your user profile (using node_profile it is easy to associate a term with a member) but it also depends on what functionality you want from the group.
It you upload documents as part of a content type and you assign a vocabulary to that content type user will be able to add tags. You can either use free tagging or a predefined list of tags (vocabulary terms).
The "norm" for vocabulary terms to be show so they are linked to a page that shows all content using that term (tag).
