I am trying (and failing) to configure HS to do the following.
1. allow users to define their region through hs levels ie: Europe -> France -> Paris
-> UK ->London
2. create a view allowing users to search user nodes by region, where if a user defined his region as Paris his node(s) would be returned under views filtered by Europe, France and Paris - but NOT returned under UK, London, etc.
I'm using content_taxonomy fields and setting and save lineage settings in the hs widget.
So far I am only able to get results by specific region, ie a user in Paris will not show up in Europe or France.
Should this be possible with the hs module?

that0n3guy CreditAttribution: that0n3guy commentedYou sure could... but then you would have to have Europe -> US - > France -> Paris -> London all as taxonomy terms...
I would probably just have them use the location module... they would have to type it in.... but then you can have it geolocated and make a fancy map (w/ views 2 and gmail modules, I've only done this in D6 though.)

plan9 CreditAttribution: plan9 commentedThanks, the location module looks promising.
I've worked out what I need to do to get HS module working the way I want; basically I need 'Save term lineage' checked in the content_taxonomy field hs widget section, but when I check this option it stops working. Only 'Save only the deepest term' option works - but then of course I lose the terms.

plan9 CreditAttribution: plan9 commentedI've had a look at the location module - but unfortunately it's not going to provide what I need. I want submitted nodes to be categorized by location using the hierarchical method I described above - so i guess it has to be hs module. On the demo module page the last example shows it can be done: http://wimleers.com/demo/hierarchical-select/taxonomy
I've spent days (and a night) trying to get the 'Save term lineage' setting to function but with no luck.
In fact i am at the point where I would like to pay someone to set this up for me.
If any one can help please let me know.

plan9 CreditAttribution: plan9 commentedThe real issue here seems to be that the HS widget does not work with Content taxonomy fields, when 'Save term lineage' is selected. I don't know if this is a bug with HS or with Content taxonomy, or an incompatibility issue between the two.
