Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
Make sure that you know if the part of Hierarchical Select's functionality that you want to use has been ported. Otherwise, you may be in for a frustrating upgrade experience.
See the included TODO.txt file for details. In a nutshell:
- Taxonomy support is almost complete, only "entity count" and token support are missing
- Forum support has **not** yet been ported (but relies on Taxonomy, so this is trivial)
- Taxonomy Views support has **not** yet been ported
Highlights of this release (which quickly followed alpha 3 and hence lists changes in alpha 3 as well):
- only one known remaining bug: #1242812: Previewing nodes deletes term reference values
- fixed major bug: multiple HS widgets on the same page could collide with each other
- save_lineage support
- create_new_item support
- upgrade path!

Initial port to Drupal 7. Not all functionality has been ported. The most essential functionality has been ported though and now takes advantage of Drupal 7 features. See the TODO.txt to find out what has been ported and what hasn't been: http://drupalcode.org/viewvc/drupal/contributions/modules/hierarchical_s....

✓ scalability issues have been fixed (The entire rendering process has been rewritten to use the Forms API, which required backporting features available only in Drupal 6. The CSS and JS have been rewritten almost completely as a result of this.)
✓ perfect graceful degradation (Compare JS enabled VS JS disabled. This is actually just a byproduct of the above change.)
✓ ability to create new items in the hierarchy
Other changes:
✓ more granular control over Views exposed filters (for both the Taxonomy and Content Taxonomy implementations)
✓ Hierarchical Select for menu parent selection
✓ enhanced configuration form (more intuitive, and with a preview)
✓ abstracted configuration form, to prevent duplicate form code for multiple modules
✓ overview of all Hierarchical Select form item configuration forms
✓ display number of matching nodes
✓ actual CCK widget for content_taxonomy (already takes advantage of the abstracted configuration form)
✓ Views exposed Taxonomy filters: supporting the **ALL** option
✓ remove dependency on jQuery Interface
✓ if available, use HTML 5 client-side database storage to reduce the number of queries to the server
