taxonomy

I'm working on a site: http://www.articleinsider.com.

It looks like the person who originally set up the site chose to use article Taxonomy rather than Menus to organize the site, which contains 50,000+ articles.

Here are the issues for discussion:

1) What are the benefits of a taxonomy organization over a menu organization?

2) It seems that on some category level pages, there are articles (which rotate as you refresh the page) - while on other category level pages, there are simply links to articles or subcategory pages.

I am building a site and I want to manage certain posts and I thought I'd tap the local community for some advice on how to set it up properly.

The site would allow users to submit news articles. Free tagging will be implemented. I have 'news' set up as a term in taxonomy with the list of associated terms. My question is how do people view all 'news'?

I'll help flesh it out.

Hejsan!

Nu är jag här och frågar igen, har letat överallt men finner inte det jag letar efter. Jag vet inte om jag har tänkt helt fel, men jag har gjort en sida där jag har gjort ett antal olika roller och gett dem rättighet att editera sitt egna innehåll. Jag har även använt taxonomy access permission för att sätta vilken taxonomy som tillhör vilket innehåll, och vad de får göra med det.

I have a few content types that I have used pathauto to alias as taxonomy listings. Will drupal paginate automatically when a certain number of nodes are displayed? Is there a way to make that happen?

I'm using the taxonomy page that's in code for Panels. In my selection rules for a variant, I am checking for a certain vocabulary type. There are a few terms however, that I would also like to be variants that reside in that vocab type.

Is this possible? Do I need to use php code or is that where contexts come in? I'm still trying to wrap my brain around panels 3.

I have been trying to use the Rules module to grant points to a user based upon the taxonomy term used for organizing points. I have been successful at granting points to the user but it always adds the points to the first term in the vocabulary and no matter what order I load the user id and term id into the rule, it always seems to ignore the term id.

I assume I am doing something completely wrong and am hoping someone can point at me and say: "Did you click the, blah blah?" Any help would be awesome, thanks!

If I solve it, I will post back here.

I find it not so easy to theme categories on node edit pages. For example, if I have a group of input fields for location, where "City" is a CCK text field and "State" is a vocabulary, I don't know easy (standard Drupal) way to put "City" and "State" close by; there could be other vocabulary fields that are not related to location and should be placed apart from "State".

I have been resorting to kind of hacky approaches such as javascript to manipulate/relocate fields on client side, which works but I can't help feeling there must be a better way.

Nu är jag här igen.
Mitt problem den här gången rör argumenten i views.
Det som jag försöker göra är att använda flera termer som argument till min view, där alla måste stämma för att noden(erna) ska visas.
exempel: doman.se/2007/januari ska bara visa noder som har termerna "2007" och "januari" (som inte har någon relation till varandra).
Termerna ligger alltså inte:

-2007
--Januari
--Februari
osv.

utan är helt oberoende av varandra.
Det känns som att man vill få in en eller flera "AND" i sql:en på nåt sätt nånstans, men jag fattar inte hur.

Hej.
Jag undrar om det finns nåt bra sätt att få ut taxonomy-termer distinkt i views?
Skulle behöva göra en lista av olika termer som har laggts in, men jag får duplicates när jag väljer taxonomy-term:all, och väljer ett speciellt vokabulär.
Jag har testat att välja "distinct", men det verkar inte ha nån effekt alls. Nånstans.
Vet inte om jag har förklarat bra nog, men om det är några frågor på vad jag menar så förklarar jag gärna tydligare.

Om någon har en lösning, så vore jag mer än tacksam.

Hi!
Using Drupal 6.13 .
I'm building a news site but there's one problem I don't now how to solve - the images database.
I'd like to ask You how do You do that.
I mean - site should have image database with taxonomy so that editor may search for images based on taxonomy.
So I need a module:
1. to upload many images and transforms metadata like description to tags
2. module to search through these images on the base of taxonomy
3. module that allows attaching an image from taxonomy database image.
