Description

This seems like the perfect solution to navigate large taxonomy terms lists, but so far we have only been able to get the alpha pagination to work with nodes.

When specifying a vocabulary the alpha pagination links don't display properly.

This could simply be a support issue as instructions on how to use this module with taxonomy terms would suffice.

Views only displays nodes. And thus the views-alpha-pager can only page nodes. There is a module for users (nodeprofile or usernode), but you need a module that converts taxonomy terms to nodes. I'm not sure that one exists.

Thanks for your response.

I ended up creating an elegant little custom block, which displays the taxonomy terms with alpha paging.

I might consider rolling this into a module at some point.

Hi!

I'm also interested in having a taxonomy list with alpha paging. How did you get it? Would you share the source?

Thanks man!

The taxonomy alpha paging was a one-off block created for a past project. Unfortunately the code was discarded after client ended up going a different direction. It wouldn't be too hard to reproduce though. That said, you might want to investigate what's already available for Views.
