At this moment using parent_php_code you can provide only one parent but there are situations when you have hierarchy split by different controls and one depend on another with multiple selected items. I've provided a patch to allow user specifying different parents in "parent_php_code".

This patch fails with the current 6.x-1.x-dev release. Is this patch to allow terms with multiple parents to be shown in
Advanced settings for hierarchical vocabularies; Parent Term:? I am experiencing this problem.

Tokyo
-Japan Rail
--Line A
---Station 1
---Station 2
--Line B
---Line 3
-Line A<= if name of this line is after 'Japan Rail' in the alphabet, this line does not show as it already appeared above(!)
--Station 1
--Station 2
etc

ERROR from patching:
(Stripping trailing CRs from patch.)

Could this patch please be brought up to the latest dev?

Thanks!

Terms with multiple parents are not repeated because they have the same term id, so they are overwritten.
You can change the building of the array from: $options[$term->tid] to something like $options["$parent][$term->tid"] but I'm not sure this is a solution, since the values of the form will not reflect the term ids anymore!

Does the attached patch (that no longer is up-to-date) use your suggested method or a different method? Also, as an example Taxonomy Manager module is able to successfully display all the field in the right hierarchy for fields with multiple parents.

I apologize that I know zip about programming but I hope I can help in anyway to get this issue resolved.

I would really appreciate your support!

Would anyone be able to help by creating a patch to fix this issue?
I believe this is a big issue as terms with multiple parents are not shown after their first occurence in the content taxonomy field setting of parent term to use.
Thank you!
