Hello everybody,
I have created a taxonomy with a depth of three levels with its terms. I select a menu item (child of primary links) as menu location for this taxonomy, hierarchy-based menu path type, and submit. The menu item selected never has the menu tree it should when I go to admin/build/menu-customize/primary-links (it stays empty), no matter how many times I rebuild the menu by selecting "rebuild the menu on submit". So There are basically two options :
- there is something I totally missed when configured my taxonomy
- there is a bug, maybe an iincompatibility with other modules installed on my drupal site ?
Regards, Raphael

Hi - I had the same problem with 6x-2.3 (release version) if I use 'Heirachy'. Using 'Default' - I only get the top level items in the menu.

Do you have the option "Hide empty terms" checked?

Same version, same problem here. Menus disappear when custom is selected.

This is related to #426304: [NOT SOLVED] Hierarchical menu, NOT expaning to current term and a few core bugs. The menu systems doesn't look at the plid/mlid relationship first, it looks at the raw path instead.

Unless you have a custom page callback (if you don't know what that is then you don't) then just use the default path and the pathauto module to format you urls.

Version: 6.x-2.4-rc2 » 6.x-2.8

I just hit this same problem. Documenting my experience for posterity to help others that may have hit same problem and have gotten frustrated trying to figure out where they may have gone wrong and what might work to fix it.

Running Taxonomy Menu 6.x-2.8. It may have been due to the fact that I had neglected to make the View prior to building the Taxonomy Menu. I tried rebuilding several times and no love even after having created the View with the custom path.

However, setting Menu Path Type to "default", saving changes, then re-editing and changing back to "custom" and saving again rebuilt the menu correctly and placed my taxonomy hierarchy in the appropriate menu item/parent location as expected.
