2 - Using taxonomy handler

Last updated on

  • Read values from the taxonomy database table. Write values to the taxonomy database table.
  • The base table must be "Term" (term_data)

That's all this handler is about and that's all you need to know about this handler.

The DraggableViews Taxonomy handler comes with the DraggableViews module. Build your custom taxonomy-terms-rearrange page.

Supported fields

  • Order field: Taxonomy: Weight
  • Parent field: Taxonomy: Term ID with Parent relationship

How to configure my personal taxonomy-term-rearrange page? (it's always the same)

  1. Navigate to the edit-page of an existing view that uses Term (term_data) as its base table.
  2. Add the field Taxonomy: Weight at the Fields section.
  3. Add the field Taxonomy: Term ID and set the relationship of this field to "Parent".
  4. Now change the Style-plugin at the Basic settings section to Draggable Table and enter the Style plugin settings.
  5. Scroll down to the Draggable Table settings and choose Taxonomy: Weight for the order field and choose Taxonomy: Term ID for the parent field. Choose "Taxonomy" handler for both fields. (that's actually the only difference to the native way)
  6. Save the settings. You'll be prompted to sort the view by Taxonomy: Weight. Save the view and you're done.
