I am just starting with Drupal 6 after a few years using Joomla.

I have Taxonomy 6.6 enabled. Most of the posts I read mention settings for hierarchy, flat etc in the Taxonomy module. In my site none of these are available to me.

I am offered tags, multiple select and required under setting.

There is no mention of hierarchy anywhere.

Any ideas anyone, please?

I am trying to setup pages showing categories and toc - I know books can do this but they are limited to 9 pages - if I have to put many child pages in a book the site will quickly become unwieldy for uses - the less clicks the better to get to content.

Cheers!

Mike

The fact that my Taxonomy module does not offer hierarchies does not seem to matter.

I have done the following:

installed Taxonomy menu module & dhtml module.

My vocabulary at present is:

  • Articles
    • business
    • Web design

I now have a nice expanding menu and a listing on the page for each category.

Simple really.

Cheers!

I think you need to read documentation at http://drupal.org/node/299. You are wrong if taxonomy do not offer hierarchies..

In d5 there was an option to explicitly make a vocabulary hierarchical. i believe in d6 all vocabularies are hierarchical by default and you simply choose parent terms when you add a new term to create the hierarchy.

Hi,

I think you are right - Drupal 5 seemed to have hierarchy as a choice.

I note that on the page navigation as seen here (development site) - http://wrightplace.co.uk/cms/content/web-site-design-smes the page navigation at the bottom just takes you back to the 'webdesign' main page.

I wonder - is there a way to show links as here - http://wrightplace.co.uk/index.php/Business/Motivation-what-s-the-point.... with the added feature of the page titles listed, not just next and prev?

Cheers!

I would think you could probably replicate that with the http://drupal.org/project/views module.

I have the same problem (Vocabulary doesn't have any Hierarchy option). Going by documentation, I think it's a bug.

You mast uncheck " Tags" in settings in your vocabulary and all will be work.
