View page title from term description
tekken - June 29, 2008 - 13:54
Hi there.
I have a view page that displays only nodes which use a specific taxonomy term (filter). Now I want to display the description of this term as the title of the view page.
I searched the forums and tried out a couple fo things but to no avail. Any help appreciated!
Solution
1) Create a different template for the taxonomy page: http://drupal.org/node/104316
2) In the title of page-taxonomy.tpl.php
<h1 class="title"><?php
$current = taxonomy_get_term(arg(2));
echo $current->description;
?>
</h1>

I was able to just add this to my page.tpl.php file and it works great without having to create a new template file (in the original poster's post, they needed it as the page title.):
<?php $current = taxonomy_get_term(arg(2)); ?><?php if ($current): ?>
<div class="taxonomy-description">
<?php echo $current->description; ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
I placed this in page.tpl.php
I placed this in page.tpl.php and it worked for all taxonomies under a vocabulary, but it did not work if I placed it in page-vocabulary.tpl.php. Any ideas why?
Also how do you do this for top level vocabularies because it didn't show up for the vocabulary when I did put it in page.tpl.php and only showed up for all the terms under the vocab...Thanks!!!

Yeah, I have a page-taxonomy.tpl.php but I think the php code needs to be something with taxonomy_get_vocabulary, but I don't know what it should be since trying different taxonomy_get_* didn't work....

You can also add this snippet
You can also add this snippet right into the view's header by turning on PHP filter module and choosing PHP as the input format.
thanks!
