I installed a fresh copy of drupal 4.7 and a fresh copy of views 4.7.x-1.4-2.

I activate the default taxonomy view to override the system default taxonomy listing, but it does not seem to 'take'.

It means that I add an header text or I change the sorting criteria and my changes are not reflected on the page, so I think that the taxonomy/term views does not override effectively the system one.

Can anyone else reproduce this??

Thanks

Sorry it's not really critical...

Marking it as fixed cause reinstalling the module and updating the database with update.php seemed to do the trick.

I'm pretty sure I installed the right version 1.4-2 yesterday, and still, I had something to update today.

The update was something to lower the weight of the module to 10.

Hope this helps finding if this is a bug or what?

Thanks

re-opening this issue...

I reinstalled my site completely on a fresh install, I have only views and views ui enabled. I created a couple of nodes and a vocab with a couple of terms.

I created a couple of test nodes, assigned to the same term.

Now I override the taxonomy/term view and try to create two tabbed views : one with order by created date and the order alphabetically like in the tutorial for this.

I did this really often on other sites, so I know the drill

url 1 : taxonomy/term/$arg/alpha --> menu as tab + default
url2: taxonomy/term/$arg/created--> menu as tab

Well, I can confirm this does not work on a clean install of 4.7.4 and views 1.4-2 !!

The taxonomy/term override works but only if you don't use tabs. With tabs, it just does not work at all..

My next test will be to use an older version of views to make sure the problem comes with 1.4-2.

Any ideas what's going on?

Thanks

Hi,

I did more testing this morning, and here's what I,ve found...

I installed views 4.7 1.0 and then created the taxonomy/term redirection with tabs like usual. It worked right out of the box, like it should.

So I decided to upgrade to the other versions one at a time, trying to isolate which version caused the problem.

Well, guess what, it worked with all versions, even after I upgraded on 1.4-2.

So my last test will be to reinstall another fresh version of 4.7.4 with 1.4-2 directly without upgrading from 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 etc...

I'll give you news on how it went.

ok, I just installed another fresh drupal with views 1.4-2 directly installed, and as I suspected, it does not work. The default override seems to work, but it does not work at all with two tabbed views.

The strange thing is once the view is created with an earlier version of views, it continues to work once you update to 1.4-2. It ust does not work outof the box with this latest version.

Hope all this helps you find the bug.

Well, I tried to update the tabs I created with the last versions, and now with the 1.4 version the tabs are not updated.

This function really does not work now. I'm not sure if the bug is in the tabbing or in the overriding of taxonomy/term.

Hi,

I installed another fresh version of drupal and I can confirm that taxonomy_term redirection does not work with tabbed views. Seems to work for only one redirected view, but if you add args and tabbed menus it fails.
The last version that it works on it seems, is 1.2.

It,s weird that no one else seems to notice, seems like a major bug to me.

If I can help with testing, please tell me.

It sounds like something broke in the $arg fixes in 1.4. I'll look more into this when I have some free time. Been pretty busy with Real Life stuff the last few weeks.

Ahh. The problem is, I think, that the module 'weight' needs to be 10 in order for Views' menu entries to override taxonomy's.

This works if you update from an earlier version of Views, but installing a fresh copy of 1.4 actually causes this not to be run.

This will be fixed in 1.5 (whether you install fresh or update.).

Version: 4.7.x-1.4-2 » 4.7.x-1.5
Status: Closed (fixed) » Fixed

I'm reopening this issue just to tell you that the taxonomy override menus does not seem to work at the first time.

I had to run update.php on a fresh drupal install after installing the 1.5 version even though there were not any updates that seemed to be available. After the update the taxonomy override with multiple tabs worked.

So just posting this so used could have an idea of what to do if they have this problem.
