Hi, I'm not sure if this is too much to ask, but something like Hierarchical Select would be great!
I have a long taxonomy with many levels, and selecting from a long long list is hard.
Being able to select a term level by level would be terrific.
Thanks!

peter-boeren commentedI'm always open to feedback. That would indeed be useful. An other way of dealing with long list would be to make use of the betterselect module http://drupal.org/project/betterselect. At this point I have no taken a look at the code yet so i don't now if it is compatible.

Flying Drupalist commentedBetter select is a great module, but it doesn't help with the solution of the long list (the list is still long), and it ignores all hierarchical data.
Comment #3
ari-meetai commentedHierarchical Select is one of the best modules for this kind of data.
Views Filter Pack would be great if it could add HS to the list of exposed filter widgets.

wim leersHS will support Views natively. It's a bitch to get it working though, because it does a lot of tricky FAPI stuff — that is also why it isn't supported yet. Hopefully I'll be able to work on it sufficiently the next few weeks :)

peter-boeren commentedI agree that HS has solved the problems hierarchical data nicely. Views degrade gracefull when javascript is turned off. Does HS also?

crea commented@Wim #4 Great news you are finally coming back to HS dev! ;)

liliplanet commentedHi,
Your module looks amazing! Just a request please, as my terms are long lists, is it ..
1. possible for the user to select by a drop-down list
2. only load the terms that have content attached in the drop-down list
3. just maybe :) have the number of terms next to the term name
Just 1. would be tremendous, thank you.

wim leers@peter-boeren: Yes, it does. See the demo page.
Comment #9
ari-meetai commented@Wim #4 I'm looking forward to use this module in my website. I'm delaying some parts of it just to see how the views integration comes up. At least would be great to see the result of the selections in the view linearly as it shows when the user picks the menu items. Cheers.
