hierarchy

I'm fairly new to Drupal and am trying to formulate an approach to using taxonomy on a site I'm working on. I don't think I fully understand the use of hierarchical taxonomy and am looking for some insight.

I understand that by using hierarchies the terms appear in a nested "outline" style list, which helps the user select terms for node content. But what is the overall benefit of this structure? Is it purely visual?

I'm trying to display a block on a page with the list of nodes title associated with terms of my taxonomy.
I wish to have something like this :

-Parent term
--Child Term
----nodes title
----nodes title
----nodes title
--Child Term
----nodes title
----nodes title
-Parent term
--nodes title
--nodes title
--Child Term
----nodes title
----nodes title

etc...
I've been trying with Views but I haven't succeed to obtain something that gives me satisfaction. The term is always present above each node and I haven't found the way to group these terms.

Hola a todos.
Escribo con una duda que me está comiendo la cabeza hace un tiempo ya, para la que no encuentro una respuesta satisfactoria.
Necesito armar un directorio de nodos, que se organice según las categorías. Probé un montón de módulos (Vocabulary Index, Directory, Taxonomy Router, Taxonomy List, etc., etc.), y ninguno funciona de la manera adecuada.

Lo que necesito exactamente es que cada página de términos me muestre los nodos que están marcados con ese término, y además los subtérminos, si existieran. Hay alguna forma fácil de hacer esto?

Un ejemplo:
Países (vocabulario)

I'm trying to use a Freetag to append to an existing taxonomy hierarchy.

I can get it to add the term but not in the right place. It adds it as a distinctly new parent item.

Taxonomy1 -->cck content taxonomy - has hierarchy
freetag --> cck content taxonomy - single entry

so the user pick their way through taxonomy1 and then adds a free-tag. Just trying to get it to add that tag to the end of taxonomy1 in the right place. So eventually it will be a complete taxonomy.

Tried using this token set but it just created a new item and didn't append it.

We are building our new intranet on Drupal. We are a group of companies, i.e. our organizational structure consists of sub-companies, which again have sub-companies or departments, which also can have sub-departments and/or employees belonging to them. We need to have this organizational structure in our Drupal-based intranet system, both:
1) in terms of content: displaying the corporate structure as a hierarchical list of companies, sub-companies, departments; displaying employee listings per company and department;

Hello from Grand Rapids!

I've been here for two weeks and already the Drupal involvement begins! I'm not actually working on the development, but our web developer is fairly new to Drupal with very few people to consult in GR; only the support forums. So we have a question based on permissions, and the context is that we're creating a website called The Rapidian that will act as an online distribution platform for citizen journalism in Grand Rapids. In this setup, we have many roles, with first-time reporter and reporter on the lower rungs and editor on the higher rungs.

So when adding content in a custom content type like a “news story,” can we hide/show certain fields based on a users role? For example, we’d like an editor role to be able to check a field “has been fact checked” but not show this to the reporter role.

I've been trying to wrap my head around this for a while and I'm running into a roadblock in terms of providing good usability to community members vs. correct information architecture. As an example, let's say I'm running a website about plants, and visitors can add articles about different plants. This is just a crude example to help understand the problem. When a visitor goes to create a new article, they can categorize it as follows:

Plant Part
- Color
-- Produce

Hi all,

Is there a way to make vocabularies hierarchically dependent, so that their terms would inherit this hierarchy?

Example:

Now for tagging an event we first select Country, then City, then Theater.
I found no solution for this on D5, now I'm on D6.
Any ideas (patches are welcome too)?

And, of course, having this working together with http://drupal.org/project/hierarchical_select would be great.

p.s. Thing which is not an option - placing terms in one vocab.

What solutions have people had most success with in creating hierarchical sites with Drupal? In my experience, users don't find the 'Menu settings' section on the node edit form at all intuitive.

Among different approaches I've seen are:

• Book module
• Taxonomy menu
• Node hierarchy

Cheers,

Alex.

Hi All,
Thanks for a great module. I'm trying to make pathauto construct hierarchical urls using cck-nodereference fields for the hierarchical relationships. And I have some questions about the tokens that are created for nodereference fields. As far as I can see the only usable token is [fieldname]-nid. Is this correct, or are the *-title and *-link tokens populated in certain circumstances?
