This patch tags a post with its parents' terms (as requested in http://drupal.org/node/230131 and http://groups.drupal.org/node/14161).

Given the following taxonomy,

- Books
-- Fiction
-- Non-Fiction
- Magazines
-- Weekly
-- Monthly

a post tagged with 'Fiction' will also be tagged with 'Books'. Note that applying this patch may break modules relying on Drupal's default behavior.

This is a feature request, and feature requests need to be filled against the most current development version (D7).

If you want this to go into core it'll at a minimum need to be re-rolled to match http://drupal.org/code-style and also to make this behaviour configurable.

This would need to be a new field widget / validator now. Moving to Drupal 8.

I am also interested in a way to enforce recursive tagging in D6.

Made some progress. Now, instead of doing nothing, it gives an error message when a node is saved: "user warning: Duplicate entry '24-0' for key 'PRIMARY' query: INSERT INTO term_node (nid, tid) VALUES (0, 24) in (site directory)/modules/taxonomy/taxonomy.module on line 720."

Just found this issue after having looked for a solution to save parent taxonomy terms automatically along with the child term in the node. Don't know if this is the right place to post - but has there been any progress on a possible solution to this (I'm on D7)? Any module? Anything?

New developments and disruptive changes should now be targeted for the 11.x branch, which currently accepts only minor-version allowed changes. For more information, see the Drupal core minor version schedule and the Allowed changes during the Drupal core release cycle.

Thank you for sharing your idea for improving Drupal.

We are working to decide if this proposal meets the Criteria for evaluating proposed changes. There hasn't been any discussion here for over 8 years which suggests that this has either been implemented or there is no community support. Your thoughts on this will allow a decision to be made.

Since we need more information to move forward with this issue, the status is now Postponed (maintainer needs more info). If we don't receive additional information to help with the issue, it may be closed after three months.

Thanks!
