Taxonomy

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.

Discuss, collaborate on, and share code and information for developing and using taxonomy and its contributed modules (and, where relevant, the more general topic of relating content).

Have questions about categorizing, tagging, sorting, or organizing stuff in Drupal? Used taxonomy in such a great way that you have to share? Want to talk about taxonomy so advanced even more esoteric words like ontology and orthogonality are needed to describe it? Need to keep up with the latest tools for all this? We shouldn't label people, but this group is for you!

Drupal 8 version of popular_tags released (keep your vocabularies tight!)

Hi all,

Just wanted to let y'all know that Brooke Heaton and I have just released Drupal 8 version of the popular_tags module. It is very helpful to sites that want to encourage editors to converge upon a smaller set of frequently used tags, rather than a huge set of infrequently used tags.

Taxonomy saving order

Coming from a different CMS, I am diving little by little into the Drupal philosophy and I have already bumped into a problem. (being a beginner sucks :/ )

I have installed the hierarchical select module to facilitate my user to add the taxonomies they want. But the user is not happy with the way that the list is displayed.

What I wanted to do is to find a way for the user to define the display (and thus the saving) order of the taxonomies on each node independently.

I thought of weights but that would have an impact on the taxonomy order and not the node.

Taxonomy in Drupal 8

Taxonomy remains in core in Drupal 8. Terms were made entities in Drupal 7, and provided with term reference fields for relating them to nodes through select list, checkboxes, or autocomplete (including with the option to create terms, also known as free tagging).

Linking to unrelated taxonomies by a node

Hi, I'm relatively new to drupal and I've search in the groups but haven't found the answer for my problem.

What I'm trying to do is find a way to link two taxonomies it's for a party service site.
In the first taxonomy we have the kind of party you're having i.e. graduation, birthday, anniversary, etc.
In the second taxonomy we have services that are related but not dependent of the party taxonomy and also can repeat in the party taxonomy i.e. music groups, catering, booze, etc.

An example of this is that

<

ul>

  • graduation can have:
  • <

    ul>

  • booze

    Getty AAT goes LOD

    A couple of weeks ago, a much anticipated launch finally took place: The Getty Arts and Architecture Thesaurus is now available as Linked Open Data to the joy of much of the cultural heritage community. This was a major step for the Getty Vocabularies programme which so far allowed access to its data through its website or through a paid subscription API.

    Ordering vocabulary terms by number of use

    Hello,

    First, excuse my very bad english.

    I want to create a block displaying a terms of a vocabulary and ordering the list by the number of term use.

    For example, a music type vocabulary :
    Jazz : used by 10 pages
    Rock : used by 2 pages
    Blues : used by 5 pages
    Pop : used by 4 pages

    I want to display :
    Jazz (10)
    Blues (5)
    Pop (4)
    Rock (2)

    The number is not obligatory.

    So, i made a view => block
    Filter : taxonomy vocabulary : System name = music type
    Pagination : defined number = 5
    More links : yes

    And i make a view => page

    best solution for mass hierarchical terms management?

    Hello. I'm seeking for a solution for a site with hundreds of Hierarchical Terms:
    Mass terms in level 1 and some terms in level 2 and some terms in level 3.
    And it's free tagging system, user can add term in any level.
    All 3 levels are required when posting node(image).

    Since there are so many terms in level 1, it's not an ease for users to select what they need with default modules, needless to say the bulk uploading. In addition to that, if users want to add new terms, how to guide them add terms level by level?

    Auto Tagging

    As I figured out there are plenty of Auto Tagging modules following different approaches. To my eyes this is a classical drupal disease having to many parallel aproaches.

    All of them try to extract terms out of text fields.

    I would like to persuade the developers to join into a single future module to simplify the work for site admins, focus efforts and improve the output.

    Bulk assign nodes terms from one vocabulary based on terms already assigned from another vocabulary

    We have several hundred nodes categorised with terms from vocabulary A. We now want to categorise all these nodes with terms from a new vocabulary, vocabulary B. Terms in vocabulary B are roughly related to those in vocabulary A - so the idea would be to programmatically do a one time assignment of terms in vocabulary B based on terms already assigned to nodes from vocabulary A. After this, users of the site would need to do some further manual tweaking as there is only a rough (not exact) correspondence of terms between the two vocabularies.

    How to keep term relationship to node, when term changes vocabulary in Drupal 7?

    I've inherited a site with a very big hierarchical taxonomy:

    Vocabulary name: categories
    --term: company name
    ---- many child terms
    -- term: country
    ---- many child terms
    -- term: issue
    ---- many child terms

    I realized it would be easier to create Search facets and Views with appropriate content if I set up each of these parent terms

    company
    country
    issue

    as their own Vocabularies.

    I created the new Vocabularies and used Taxonomy Manager to shift all the sub-terms to their new vocabularies.

    Dupal 6 Taxonomy coding

    I have a Taxonomy hierarchy and need to be able to limit certain roles to editing only child terms, not the parent terms. I've looked through all of the modules that I can find that relate to this and haven't found any that fits this requirement, so it looks like I have to write a custom module. Any hints as to the direction I should be looking.

    This is in Drupal 6.

    Thanks in advance.

    is there a module to create AJAX Taxonomy suggestion by vocabulary?

    Im trying to effectively create a category drop-down with a list of pre defined items from a vocabulary on the 'add new content' page as well as have the input field for the existing tags system. so the user can file a post tagged as "blue bald dalmatian" in the first tag field and then "dogs" in the second field (which ive pre defined)

    whats the best way to go about this?

    Taxonomy inheritance from Product to Product Display

    Googled this a bit but unclear if a resolution has been identified yet...

    Product has taxonomy (call it Brand).
    Product Display uses Product Reference field to display Product details. Here the Taxonomy Term (Brand) is visible.
    When viewing the Brand Term Taxonomy Page no content is identified as tagged by that term.

    ** Is it possible to for Product Displays to inherit terms from Products? **

    I see the hierarchy as this:

             --View, etc --
        --- Prod Dis ---
    ---- Product Def ----
    

    ----- Taxonomy Term -----

    Using Taxonomy trees as main data structure on a website

    I am building a new website consisting of a wide selection of science publications. Common for all the data is the basis of a branched taxonomy three (ie. many levels).

    The taxonomy tree describes related term's interrelationship with each other. The goal with this setup is to have a website that does not rely on a static menu structure but on filtered taxonomy trees. This way documents appear wherever their tags take them.
