Description

Thank you for the fantastic module. I would love to see the ability to sort the FAQ's page by question popularity. Maybe you could tie into the core statistics module somehow and add a sort for total page views?

This would allow the most popular questions, as determined by site visitors, to be at the top of the list.

Thanks for the consideration.

HI----

Please Nancy drew I need you help! I have been downloading every taxonomy module I can find.

I have several aggregated news feeds which contain numerous taxonomy tags from several taxonomy vocabularies.

Now,

I have a Taxonomy category "Business"

And several nodes in that category.

CAT Business
Node A
Term1
Node B
Term 1
Term 2
Node C
Term 1

I am trying to create a sortable list which I can

1) Change the CAT Selection ---- IE Business / Health / Science (with the option of multiple categories or all even?)
1a) Chose the cat of the term you are interested in learning about

2) List the tax term with the total number of times it is listed in a node... for the above example it would be
Term 1 (3)

3) Sort the list from ascending to descending or vice versa
Term 1 (3)
Term 2 (1)

4)Allow a filter to be added which would limit the time period by node published date

5) allow you to set the number of terms to display with paging option.

This could probably be achieved with the views module, so I'm afraid I won't be adding this feature at present.

Cheers,
Stella

I agree this could be done with views. But, I don't think it can be done in various question/answer formats this module provides. Everything this module does can be accomplished with views/taxonomy with the exception of the formats, so I don't see that as an argument for not adding this feature.

Either way, features take time I understand if this is not a priority. Thanks again for the great module!
