Content Taxonomy

mh86 - February 8, 2007 - 16:14

This module provides a CCK field type for referencing taxonomy terms.
The fields are independent from vocabulary settings. For every field you can specify following settings:

  • widget type (see list below)
  • general CCK settings (label, description, fieldgroup, weight, single/multiple, required, ...)
  • the vocabulary to use
  • further settings for hierarchical vocabularies, like the depth of the tree or a parent term for sub-trees
  • storage settings: storage is done in the CCK tables. But for many modules it's necessary, that the saved values are also available to the core Taxonomy system. In this case it's possible to save values additionally to the core taxonomy database table. (Drupal 6)
  • widget-specific settings

Content Taxonomy is going to hide all form fields from the core Taxonomy module from vocabularies, which are handled by a Content Taxonomy field (since Beta 6).

Further Content Taxonomy Fields have Views and Token support.

At the moment there are following widgets available:

A good comparison between the different CCK/Taxonomy Modules is available here.

Note: active development is only done for the 6.x branch!
