Displaying a taxonomy vocabulary and its terms as a menu.

Ploo - October 23, 2009 - 13:25

I have a taxonomy vocab called Articles and within that vocab I have article categories. Now I would like to display a menu which would be named after the taxonomy vocab (Articles) which would list its terms inside, so from the homepage I can straight away see the menu and see the terms listed in it. I had a little play around but failed. Taxonomy is an awesome tool it's just difficult to get your head around at first. :S

The only problem with using Taxonomy menu as a menu source is that all the vocabulary items are stuck inside an item that displays the vocab name. If you are trying to let the taxonomy drive the site content you'd want all the top level items in the vocabulary displayed, not the name of the vocabulary.

Vocabulary optional

Hi,

It's an option to display the vocabulary itself as a menu item, so you can hide it and use your top-level terms as categories for the navigation, which sounds pretty much like what you want to do.
