I'm really confused by the documentation for the core Taxonomy module. http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/taxonomy says:
" If you've allowed this vocabulary to have a hierarchy, you can put the term in its place
in the hierarchy by choosing the term's "parent.""
Yet in my system, there is no "parent" link box visible anywhere. Moreover I can't find anywhere to make the setting that is referred to later on:
" Vocabularies can be set to allow hierachies of terms. There are three settings: disabled keeps all the terms on the same level; single allows terms to be nested but each sub-term is associated on only one parent; multiple allows a term to be associated to multiple parents. "
How do I set these? Is it only possibly in v5 or v6 of Drupal? (I'm in the process of upgrading but I have a site to maintain!!) Taxonomy doesn't throw up an entry in administer/settings, and it's nowhere in the main setup - yet taxonomy is supposed to be a core module? Does it depend on contributed modules to allow you to use this capability? If so, which one is recommended?
There must be a simple answer to this!

That has been around since well before 4.7
As the text you've quoted says you have to enable this at the vocab level (eg on the edit vocab page). Once you've enabled the hierarchy settings for the vocab itself, each term in that vocab gets a parent field (on the edit term page).
I can't remember what the paths were in 4.7 (they changed in 5), but it was pretty easy to find - try something like /admin/taxonomy

You're right! How I missed it I don't know, but I did. It's one of the options under edit the category.
Thanks.
