How this module works...??

when you edit the term in the administration, there is a selection box to select related terms.
try that and see if it help

actually i dont know how relationship works in drupal, unless its a helper function for other modules

Right now all the module does is add relationships in the administration area of taxonomy terms and uses the term_relation table in Drupal to store the relationships. To actually use the relationships you have to write a module and do it programatically.

I plan to extend this module, as time permits, into something more usable out of the box. I've added views support to the latest development release to pull nodes based on related terms. That feature is very alpha, and I have only tested it for my use case, so use at your own risk.

Hi Tom,

I don't know if your module is suitable for me, could you tell me?

I'm working in a Ubercart shop. I'll use taxonomy to set brands for the products (is the default system to do it). But I need add another info to the nodes, but only for shop owner management purposes: the "provider" field.

A Provider could have some brands, and more logic solution would be a hierarchical taxonomy where Provider were "parent terms" and brands are "children terms". The problem of this approach is that then customers could see Provider info.

Another approach would be use 2 different taxonomies without relation and hide Provider Taxonomy (with taxonomy_hide module or term_display module . You must fill two fields and is not as good for report reasons (that is the target of Provider info: have a report with products out of stock of each provider, to order them to it).

Then, I could use your module to relate Brand Taxonomy terms (with all the products inside) and a hided Provider Taxonomy terms (with no products inside). If yes, I suppose it's easy to get views or reports through it.
