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!

Read moreD7: Term field upgrade and migration strategy
Last updated by Anonymous on Sat, 2009-07-11 14:58
With some kind of CCK Field UI going into core and taxonomy term field going in hopefully soon, we can really resolve the problems related to upgrade path. Please volunteer if you can! Here are the principles I'm drawing out of the discussion so far:
Data migration
- For each vocabulary, create a field.
- For each row in taxonomy_vocabulary_node_type create a field instance for that vocabulary's field on that node type's bundle.
- For each row in taxonomy_term_node, save a row in appropriate field instance's table.
How to style a single-select dropdown?
Hey,
I originally posted this question here: http://drupal.org/node/507724, but got no response, so I am trying in this group. I will of course post a write up of the solution in the original post if I get one here 8o)
Does anyone know how to style a single-select dropdown, which is based on a taxonomy vocabulary?
As it is now, the styling is a dash added in front of the child terms, like this:
Parent
-Child
--Grandchild
-Child
-Child
Parent
-Child
Ideally I would like to style the parent term bold, to really make it stand out and clarify where a new category begins.

Cross vocabulary hierarchy
Hi all,
Is there a way to make vocabularies hierarchically dependent, so that their terms would inherit this hierarchy?
Example:
voc 1: Countries
voc 2: Cities
voc 3: TheatersNow 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.
Read moreTagging comments?
Hello!
I'm curious - is there a good (and ideally easy) way to incorporate tagging of comments?
I'm thinking D6 here. Is node comment a good way to go? the only way to go?
Has anyone been down a similar road before? Any pitfalls?
Looking forward to any tips you might have!
Thanks!

Read morefilter taxonomy term in meny to show only nodes with term from other vocabulary
Hello,
I've been searching in the hope that there is an answer but didn't find anything, so apologies if I turn out to duplicate an existing thread.
I am building a site with several vocabularies. I use Taxonomy Menu to turn some of them into a menu. What I want is this: if a user clicks a term (from vocab A) in the menu he/she should get a page with only those nodes that match vocab B. And I need to style that in a certain way to.
Example:
- vocab A has terms: archives, libraries, courses
- vocab B has terms for countries: Britain, Germany, Belgium
Question about a View with Taxonomy-Filtering
Sorry this is so long. I tried to include as much detail as possible, so it could kind of act as a “recipe” for future websites like mine. (By the way, I didn’t know if this applied more to “Views” or “Taxonomy” so I posted this in both groups. I know duplication is frowned upon, but I know that most people aren’t members of both groups so I didn’t want to select only one group if the solution really lies within the conceptual framework of the other group).

Term index node?
Is it possible replace a specific taxonomy term page with a custom (panels) node?
Like:
Content Type: albums
-pop
--britney spears
--cristina aguilera
-rock
--bob dylan
--the doors
and in one moment i want to create a page for dod dylan, with flash, panels, views and others silly things. But don't want to make custom page for the hole vocabularies, just for one term.
Conditional panels, blocks or in content code, are not serious options because don't provide full node features (keywords, title, internationalization, search result, etc).

How to make CCK fields do some of the same tricks as taxonomy terms
Last updated by Anonymous on Sat, 2009-03-28 19:06
In Drupal, taxonomy.module implements hook_term to provide links among content which shares a given term. Site builders often use this feature to provide indexes and RSS feeds of their content.

Does Taxonomy Still Matters?
Hello there,
I´m working with Drupal some years now, and everytime I need to set some sort of classification, I think always in taxonomy. So I create some taxo vocabs and terms and everything goes smooth.
But recently I started to rethink my way of doing it, and started to play with CCK list fields.
You can work with them in a flexible manner, and it does have excellent Views support. You can show them in views and use them as filters, exposed or not.
So, overall, replacing Taxonomy terms for CCK text list fields are OK in my book.

Taxonomy Reloaded
Introduction
Taxonomy is Drupal's well-known classification system. It is both powerful and outdated. As chx put it: "Taxonomy is beyond saving.". Taxonomy is slow, doesn't use modern APIs like FAPI and it needs Field integration. Updating existing code would be a long and painful process, since so many things need to be changed: all sorts of code needs to be cleaned up, Field integration, Node.module independency, etc.
