I just installed the taxonomy browser module. My vocabularies are ordered correctly by weight on the settings page. I selected to show all of them on the category browser page, but they all seem to be displayed in a random order, which makes the page very confusing for users. The order is not alphanumeric, by id, creation date, or last updated.

So has anyone else had a similar problem and what is the ordering of vocabularies rule for the category browser page?

⋅ Categories: Drupal 4.7.x

I also get the following error when I try to use it:

Too many tables. MySQL can only use 31 tables in a join query: SELECT DISTINCT(node.nid), node.title AS node_title, node.changed AS node_changed, node.changed AS node_changed, node.type AS node_type, users.name AS users_name, users.uid AS users_uid, node_comment_statistics.last_comment_timestamp AS node_comment_statistics_last_comment_timestamp FROM node node LEFT JOIN term_node term_node ON node.nid = term_node.nid LEFT JOIN term_data term_data ON term_node.tid = term_data.tid LEFT JOIN term_node term_node2 ON node.nid = term_node2.nid LEFT JOIN term_hierarchy term_hierarchy ON term_node2.tid = term_hierarchy.tid LEFT JOIN term_data term_data2 ON term_hierarchy.parent = term_data2.tid LEFT JOIN term_hierarchy term_hierarchy2 ON term_data2.tid = term_hierarchy2.tid LEFT JOIN term_data term_data3 ON term_hierarchy2.parent = term_data3.tid LEFT JOIN term_hierarchy term_hierarchy3 ON term_data3.tid = term_hierarchy3.tid LEFT JOIN term_data term_data4 ON term_hierarchy3.parent = term_data4.tid LEFT JOIN term_hi in /myserverpath/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 120.

You need to have the view module.
On the views page, click on add, for the term view.
You can now configure the ways it appears !

So, not much to have to do with the "module" taxo_browser

Ok, I have views installed and I need to play with it further to get other aspects of my site appear the way, I want, so i guess I will work with that later.

I don't that views will fix my first problem though because views deals with the ordering of nodes. I don't see how views can correct the random display of my vocabularies on the taxonomy_browser page.

I'm not sure why it works now but it does. . .

However the original problem is still unsolved.

The page at which this can be viewed is http://www.proamsportslinks.com/taxonomy_browser

The categories should mostly be in numerical order (they are weighted into the proper order on the taxonomy settings page), yet they are inexplicably in a random order on the page linked above. They do appear in the correct order on the taxonomy browser settings page in the "Included Vocabularies" selection box.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks.

Bill, I submitted a bug report on the Taxonomy Browser page since this thread has yet to produce a solution. The bug report: http://drupal.org/node/76944

I submitted a patch at http://drupal.org/node/76944. I really do not understand why it was broken, but the fix is really easy. Looks like no one interested in this module... May be there are some alternatives?

Hi sin, I've installed the patched module and works perfect. Thanks.

Will it be available for Drupal 5? I hope so.

1. .info file is required in order to upgrade module to Drupal 5.0.
27. is also affects taxonomy_browser.module.
All other points require some investigation and testing.
