I understand well the purpose of the module but it's the first time that I ever get so close to what I've been looking for for so long on drupal 5.x! And therefore I put some hopes on it!

Thus a few feature requests tease me and I hope will please you and other contributors..:

1- Option for having one pre-selected vocabulary within admin/settings/taxonomy_quick_find, so that the corresponding blocks show only the terms from the preselected vocabs.
> Could be done thanks to a new "Vocabularies Settings" fieldset within the "Add Block" Fieldset.

    1.0- Possible variations:
    1.0.1- Pre-select one *or more* vocabularies.
    1.0.2- Blocks show first the terms from preselected vocabs, instead of "only".
      Possible variations:
      1.1.1 Might be a "to do" task anyways:
      If only one term is found, replace the dropdown box and its "select a term" label by a "For [term-name]" label, which will be followed by the node type and corresponding nodes. In my case for example, I'd have "For [this dance show]" (without the brackets of course) followed by 'Image' and the related nodes, then 'Video' and the related nodes, etc...

2- Choosing the maximum number of nodes displayed within/for each node type.
> Could be done within the "Block Settings" Fieldset from admin/build/block/configure/taxonomy_quick_find/TQF_block_ID?destination=admin/settings/taxonomy_quick_find, next to "Default node type configuration :", with numeric dropdown boxes which would be greyed untill the corresponding nodetype checkbox is checked.
> Remark: 's' will be lacking from the nodetype's names in blocks. Untill we get a better idea, the "Video" nodetype name stands as the label for the video nodeS, unless only one node is showed. By the way. Something like "no result found" is displayed in place of the nodes within the blocks when the node view first show up without corresponding nodes, but it does not appear when nothing's found after a user's term selection.

    2.0- Possible variations:
    2.0.1- Add a "more" link either under each nodetype list of node (less easy for coder:) or at the bottom of the whole block (less practical for users) that would lead to a view or something similar (?).



Thank you for what you've done. That already a great job! I guess it took you a while to get this, but it's worth to bring it to the drupal project! Well, I hope so for you as well as for us!
    Greetings,

Arsène

I've implemented ALL the above suggestions (thanks!) except the 'add a "more" link' as I cannot think of a neat way to do this. The main problem is, there is no "default" place to look for all 'blog nodes' tagged 'foo'.

Thanks for the suggestions! Marking this as fixed now.
