I've installed this module to check out what it actually does. In the module's page, the description says:
'The taxonomy_grid module provides a page containing content types and associated terms'
Well, where is this page created? What is the path I can actually see the results at?
Also, can this path be configured? Because I don't see an option for this somewhere in its settings page.

klonosI see that under each of the 'Included Vocabularies' and 'Included Types' sections' fields there is a text referring to a 'category browser page'. Is this the page I'm looking for? Still there is no url for it so people can find it.
How about making the 'category browser page' part of the 'Select the types/vocabularies the user can select from on the category browser page' text a link to this page?

tahiticlic commentedThe page path is "taxonomy_grid".
I don't understand what is the category browser page you're referring to: the line under each vocab or type is the description line you've entered when you've created these vocabs or types.

klonosPerhaps I am not explaining myself as I should, so what follows is some questions to clarify things. I have numbered those questions so you can reply to each one.
1. Ok, when I am at the module's configuration page (http://my.site.name/admin/settings/taxonomy_grid) I see the page title that says 'Taxonomy Grid' with some help text that says:
'The taxonomy_grid module provides a page containing content types and associated terms
Together with the taxonomy_image.module, the list can be displayed with a image icon.'
In your previous reply, you mean that this page that the module provides is under http://my.site.name/taxonomy_grid
Right ??? (yes/no) If no, where is this page located?
2. I visited that url (http://my.site.name/taxonomy_grid) and all I got was a page with the title 'Tous les types'. This is weird because I have changed the title to 'Test Taxonomy Grid' in the settings page (http://my.site.name/admin/settings/taxonomy_grid). Then I enabled one of my vocabularies and one of my content types and saved all changes. Why is it still showing that default title that the module comes with and not the one I chose?
3. My next question is why is the 'http://my.site.name/taxonomy_grid' url hard-coded and we aren't given the option to select the path we want the page to have instead? Can you please make this an option in the module's configuration?
4. Back in the module's config page (http://my.site.name/admin/settings/taxonomy_grid) under the 'Vocabularies' section I see all my taxonomy vocabularies with a check-box next to them. Right after the end of the list with the vocabularies (NOT under each one of them) there is a single line of help text that says:
'Select the vocabularies the user can select from on the category browser page.'
In the same page (http://my.site.name/admin/settings/taxonomy_grid) under the 'Types' section, I see all my content types with check-boxes. Right after them (at the end of the list) there is also a similar help text that says:
'Select the types the user can select from on the category browser page.'
So I am not referring to this page. You are referring to it twice in your module's configuration page. All I am asking is what is it and where is it located.
Also in your previous reply, you are thinking perhaps I am referring to the descriptions of my vocabularies or my content types. Since I haven't entered any description for either my vocabularies or my content types, I see no text bellow them. So this is not the text I am talking about.
I hope I made myself understood this time. If not, please let me know and I will post some screenshots to show you what I am talking about.
PS: Sorry for the long post and for taking your time, but I am trying really hard to understand how this module works :(

tahiticlic commented1°) Yes.
2°) So the path is correct. For the title, clear the cache (the menu needs to be rebuilt).
3°) You can add an alias to set your own path. I'll try to give it as an option, if I find some time to do it...
4°) Oh, sorry... That's something I didn't change in the translation (France here...) and this is more likely the "content types browser" that should be written here.
What needs to be improved, among a lot of things, would be the fact that you enable vocabs for all content types at the same time. So if a same vocabulary V is applied to 2 content types, then enabling the V would show it for both content types on the taxonomy_grid page. That's how it works : you select content types and vocabularies and the module shows it on a browsing page.
Comment #5
klonosOk, thanx for the prompt reply. Now I think we're getting somewhere...
1. Thought so ;)
2. Clearing the cache did the trick ;)
How about you've changed the help text under the 'Page title' field to something like:
'Title that will be displayed on the page. Please empty your cache after saving in order to take effect'.
This way, you won't have any support issues in the future of people not seeing their title being saved and displayed. Also you ware missing the word 'will' that I have added in bold there, that makes more sense in the phrase.
3. Again thought so. I am glad that reporting this made you consider adding this option sometime in the future ;)
While you are at it, how about adding a feature that will allow people to create more than one Taxonomy Grid pages each one with different configuration (different vocabularies and/or content types selected) and different paths?
4. 'Tous les types' as default title gave me an idea that it had to do with something gone wrong in the translation. Even if you've changed this to 'content types browser' I believe it still wouldn't make sense, since there is no such phrase or menu available in drupal. How about these:
- For the 'Vocabularies' section, the help text could be something like 'Select one or more from all the available vocabularies'
- Similarly, for the 'Types' section. I think that it should be 'Select one or more from all the available content types'
For both cases, the word 'Available' seems more proper than the 'Included' you are using now. I also believe that 'Types' should be changed to 'Content Types'.
I am making a lot of suggestions here. In order to help you, I will create separate issues for each of them and you can take your time to implement them in the future. Once done, you can mark them as fixed.
Thank you for considering my proposals.
