Hi,

How i can obtain a view like the image in attachment?

(a view showing the children terms under the parent one)

Thank you!

Support != feature request.

You can achieve something like this using a tree view. Use your theme to style the list according to your wishes. The zebra striping will probably not work like this, but you will however be able to position items correctly.

Index will allow you to write your own views without hacking the module, so stay tuned!

I Xano, sorry for my "bad post", but I meant ask for a new feature (not a support): a fourth kind of view in addition to the default ones (tree, alphabetical, browsable).

With a solution like themeing a tree view I think I can't achieve my goal because tree view doesn't have the alphabetical filter on the top and because the zebra striping issues you have already noticed.

Do you/anybody else have a suggestion?

(another question: Will new module INDEX you're developing replace the vocabulary index one? Are both module coexist in future? )

Thank you very much!

Title: Another kind of view » [Display mode] secondary items
Project: Vocabulary Index » Index
Version: 6.x-3.x-dev » 6.x-1.x-dev
Component: User interface » Code
Category: support » feature

I won't be adding new features to Vocabulary Index, as Index is rapidly becoming more stable. It will indeed replace Vocabulary Index. As soon as it's ready I'll release Vocabulary Index 3, which allows you to convert all Vocabulary Indexes to Indexes very easily.

I'll move this issue to Index, so I can think of a way to achieve this kind of view :)

Would this display mode be browsable or just a single page? Some sort of tree view with just two levels?

Hi Xano, thank you very much for your praiseworthy effort!

About your question: yes, it would be browsable (with paging I mean)

I'll try to explain better the view (always sorry for my bad english):

  1. On the top, the alphabetical filter
  2. Every stripe would contain:
    • In the first line, will be present the FATHER term (the absolute top term) with is own formatting
    • In the second line, will be present the chindren terms sequentially, no matter what deep of the level tree (on the same line with the same formatting children terms of different level deep). The deep levels to include in this view would be configurable (1 level deep, or 2 levels deep or 3 and so on)
  3. Obviously all the terms are links to their taxonomy page

Thank you!!!

- I'm not sure if I'll put the alpabetical filter into Index, as it hasn't got anything to do with hierarchy. If I do, it will be an option for every display mode, but I'm not yet sure how to implement this.

- The whole idea behind Index is the hierarchical display of data. Displaying levels 2 and beyond exactly the same doesn't really fit into this picture. I think we'll just stick to two levels for this display mode.

- Index is not just about Taxonomy anymore. Nodes, users, etc. can be used instead of terms as well. In some cases this matters.

I added this display mode as Upper two levels.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

I can't wait to try this module: when can I do that? Is it now stable? I already have vocaboulary index installed: what I have to do?

Thank you!
