View an archive by type or by category

Each module that produces content may have a page that lists content of that type. For example all blog posts can be seen at the blog path. Content that has been categorized using taxonomy terms have a page for viewing that content.

Finding terms

while logged in, go to admin >> categories, i.e. /admin/taxonomy/

You'll see a list of your vocabularies, click the "list terms" link on the right.

Now you'll see a list of your terms - each one is a link of the form:

http://drupal.org/taxonomy/term/3

where 3 can be any number. You can use this URL to get all nodes associated with that term. You can also use this to make a URL alias, e.g.

alias "/taxonomy/term/3" to "news"

Most themes will also put in a link at the bottom or top of a node for each associated taxonomy terms. Each term will then bring you to this same type of /taxonomy/term/38 page. For example, at this page: http://drupal.org/node/38235 you can see a taxonomy term "Theme development" at the top right. If you click on this, it will take you to: http://drupal.org/taxonomy/term/3
