The directory module provides a page with a simple taxonomy-based view of your Drupal site. It provides a hierarchical navigation page for content assigned to selected taxonomies, allowing the site users to 'drill down' on categories of interest.

Requires: Taxonomy module.

To my knowledge, has not been tested with CCK, Flexinode, or Category modules. If you have tested this and have any info regarding these modules, please contact me and I'll update this page.

Site administrators can:

  • Define one or more taxonomy terms ('vocabularies') to be included in the directory. The directory module includes content assigned to these terms in the directory.
  • Select the node types to be excluded from the directory. All other node types will be included.
  • Define a 'resource count threshold to display subcategories
  • Define the number of items to display for each visible subcategory
  • Define a text description to be displayed on the directory page

Note: This module is not currently under active development - it was resurrected from orphaned projects and modified to make it work with Drupal 4.7. Drupal 5 compatibility is in progress, provided by other contributors.

Please check out the project page, and try the git head version if you want to see the newest features. Latest features:

  • Display enhancements: Child node counts (optional), improved layout
  • Configuration: Enable child node counts, suppress empty terms.

You can download the latest version, and view and submit issues on the directory module project page.

I'm running 4.7. I have cck nodes. This module is working correctly in every way except it does not show the count for nodes.
