Hello,

I would like to include several different types of taxonomy term pages on my website. One layout does not fit all for the different content that each taxonomy displays.

I have created separate views to display terms for different taxonomy.

View people, displaying items of type Term
View company, displaying items of type Term

The People one uses "Link this field to its taxonomy term page" to point to a particular layout that has columns that relate to people using the default taxonomy_term view. I would like to make second one, company, to use a taxonomy term page with different columns that relate to companies.

What do I need to do to tell Views to send users to a different taxonomy term page?

Thanks.

If you want different taxonomy pages, for example per vocabulary i suggest you to use panels and use different variants.
There you can embed different kind of views.

I plan on using panels, but I need to make the views first to put in the panels.

How do I make views allow me to make different versions of taxonomy_term?

Make two different views. Both accepting arguments for taxonomy term. Therefore clone the taxonomy view. Alternative you could create multiple displays

Hi,

Thanks for your suggestion. I created an alternative Display under taxonomy_term. But I don't know how to get the View to use this alternative Display. I have given it a different name.

When I click "Link this Field to a Taxonomy Term Page," on the page that I would like to have point to the Taxonomy Terms it does not give me a choice between either Display within the taxonomy_term View.

How do I get the View to use the second Display in the taxonomy_term view?

Your help is appreciated.

Choose another view in the panel. Thats selection is done by panel variants.
