autocategorise

matslats - August 31, 2008 - 11:59

Users cannot be trusted to categorise things themselves, and it's too much work for administrators.

This module adds a checkbox and a button to the vocabulary edit page. If you switch on autocategorise for a vocabulary it will categorise nodes by matching the body and title against its own terms and synonyms. Synonyms will typically be word stems or regular expressions.
A button on the vocabulary edit page will recategorise all the content in the governed types. This means the category definitions are essentially flexible and can evolve with the content.

If you want richer, third party categorisation, and more, take a look at the open calais module, Demo here.
To apply tags based on search results, rather than by contenttype, see Mass Tag module.

N.B. Upgraders from 1.2 & below! Be sure to delete the old module since the machine name of the module has changed. And you'll need to edit your settings on the vocabulary pages since the preferences variable has changed format too.

Version 1.4 contains minimal functionality, matching case insensitively on word fragments. This should be good for most purposes.

Looking for a maintainer to implement regular expression matching, and other stuff.
