Creating one taxonomy menu out of multiple vocabs?

On Frank's request, this functionality is being implemented in a modified version of Taxonomy Menu.

This menu benefits taxonomy systems which involve the same terms being repeated over and over eg clothing, you might have:

shirts, shoes, pants

Then below that in the heirarchy:

size: 10, 12, 14

And below that

colour: red, green, black

Anyway, the code is attached. Sponsored by http://helpworx.de.

If you would like to create a patch for this against the current dev code then I can add it to the D5 branch.

Does this patch takes care of the following:

Let´s have
pants
- size 10
-- red
-- blue

Do you show under red only nodes for red pants of size 10?
How do you do that? By passing three arguments to a view?
category/term id (pants)/term id (size 10)/term id (red)
Or by filtering it in another way?

(Neil, that fits with my last comment in http://drupal.org/node/388486#comment-1353046 under F )

I was going to use some of this code in the next version (siting the original author, of course). This is for a D5 version though, the next version will be D6 only.

indytechcook, big thanks for your work.
So is this possible to create such multi-vocabulary menu with the stable taxonomy menu 6.2 version of the module? It is needed very often!

You can assign different vocabularies to the same menu, then manually move the menu items around in the menu admin screen (not taxonomy menu). Not really a good way but it should work.

This functionality is planned to be built in on version 3 #388486: Basic considerations for latest version

The advanced taxonomy menu as outlined in this thread is being submitted as part of the package for taxonomy_menu 5.x-1.04.

Looks like 5.x-1.04 includes the advanced taxonomy menu.
Marking as fixed.
