Excellent Alternative to the Taxonomy menu module because it works like a charm with Pathauto, thanks.

However, it seems to only appear in the navigational menu block even though i specified it to show in another menu block that i created in the config screen? Also, it shows up in the navigation menu but when viewing it in add/edit menu screen it doesn't appear in the navigation menu where you can add/edit/delete menu item?

Is there something i'm missing? I'm using this on Drupal 5.11

Thank you

You cannot edit the menus in the Admin->Menu screen because the menus generated by this module are dynamic, thus, they cannot be administered.

Can you outline the steps you have done to try to put the menus in another menu or block. What you should do is first create the Menu in the Admin->Menu screen, then go to the Taxonomy Navigation config screen and, on the specific vocabulary you would like the terms to be available as menu items, select the menu you have previously created as the parent. This should work, if not, can you send a screenshoot of the configuration screen with the vocabulary with the problem expanded?

Thanks for the feedback.

Okay, what i did was i created a taxomony called 'About Us' and in this Vocab i created terms. Then i created a new menu in Admin -> Menu called About Us. This was to be used for the taxonomy navigation.

After that, i went into taxonomy navigation config screen and assign the new taxonomy which is 'About Us' to the new menu i created in Admin -> Menu called About Us. Finally, i activated the menu block for About Us to see the results, but nothing seems to appear.

I'll play around with it a bit more and let you know.

Thanks for your quick reply.

Have you checked

Show "Vocabulary name" in menu

in your About Us vocabulary on the taxonomy navigation' settings?

Really strange. Can you try this module on a fresh drupal install and let me know if it works OK or you can reproduce this same behaviour. Trying to find if there is a conflict with some other module you might have. I'll try to have a look on my side as well.

Hi,

I've tested it out on a clean install with taxonomy navigation version 5.x-1.0 and i'm still getting the same issue. It appears in the user menu (in this case, in my admin user menu) and not the one that i had assigned to.

I've even checked the box - Show '"Vocabulary name" in menu' and set the parent menu to the one i created.

Not sure if this will help but i'm using it with:

Drupal 5.12
pathauto-5.x-2.3
token-5.x-1.11
cck-5.x-1.9
views-5.x-1.6

thanks,

Can I have access to a dump of that DB you are using if it doesn't have any sensible information? Can you make it available for me to download it from somewhere?

Thanks,

Thanks for your time. Your problem was due to a missconfiguration on the slashes part of settings. I knew that part was tricky. I slightly improved the module so that configuration is no longer needed and it should work fine with most category aliases.

Try version 1.1 and let me know how it goes.

Excellent work, it seems to have fixed the issue.

Is there plans for a Drupal 6 version?

Thanks

Eventually yes, but I am not sure when. I guess I am waiting until I have to move my CORE drupal sites to drupal6, might be soon though now that Views has released the final version.
