Hello,
I'm trying to create views that will override some of the taxonomy terms. However, I want different views based on the term. I don't necessarily need aliases. For instance, when the url says mysite.com/taxonomy/term/11, or mysite.com/taxonomy/term/33, I'm okay with it. However, I'd like to do something different, especially since I'm using simplenews, which has a Term ID of 11.
I did this:
Try 1:
1. Override taxonomy to create a view, called mynewsletter_archive.
2. Set url: taxonomy/term.
3. View type: table
4. Argument type: Taxonomy Term ID: Summary sorted ascending, %1, everything else blank
5. Filter: Taxonomy term is one of Newsletter issue.
However, when I click on 'previous issues' link, which points to /taxonomy/term/11, I can tell the view isn't responding.
Try 2:
1. Set the url to taxonomy/term/11.
No, it brings up a page that says:
Newsletters (16), which is a link to the url taxonomy/term/11/11, which is the actual view. I'm of the opinion I shouldn't have 11 in my view url, but how do I make it so when I click on taxonomy/term/11, it brings up the actual view I've created (a table of all of my previous issues)?
I've looked on here for how to do this, but everything I see is people saying they've already done what I'm trying to do.

I want to do the same thing
I want to do the same thing as you're trying to do in 1). did you come up with any solution?
I think 2) also depends on overriding the taxonomy as well. I'd tried to do this and I can't get it to work.
Are you using Views 2 and Drupal 6?
Have you tried...
...the Taxonomy Redirect (http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_redirect) module?
