Taxonomy context

·
lee20 - January 28, 2004 - 18:45

This module utilizes the core taxonomy module to create a hierarchical menu tree for each vocabulary. The menus are created as an independent block which can be displayed contextually or display can be controlled through standard block controls. This module also displays the term description for the the term list pages as well.

This module also allows you to add taxonomy based breadcrumbs to node pages.

Version 5.x-1.0 is the recommended version and is stable enough to use on a production site

Taxonomy Context will be ported to Drupal 6 in the upcoming months.

New features in Version 2

  • Vocabularies are individually configurable in Version 2.
  • Improved theme-ing capabilities
  • Enhanced views integration
  • Able to use different views for different vocabularies (no documentation available yet)
  • Customizable "base" breadcrumb (e.g. Home > Custom > Term > Term > Node)
  • Teaser/Full Description support added.

A few considerations before trying version 2:

  • I have not had a chance to thoroughly test version 2 although I am using it on a production site and it works for my needs.
  • Our newest maintainer is only working with Version 2.
  • The vocabulary pages from version 1 may not work in version 2
  • Migrating from version 1 to version 2 is not recommended yet (uninstall version 1 before installing version 2)
  • I won't have much time to contribute fixes and patches for awhile
  • I am more of a SVN guy, so CVS commits may be few and far between.

If you are interested in co-maintaining this module contact me.
