I currently have two content types. The first content type has a node reference field referencing the second content type. I have taxonomy terms for the second content type. Is there a way so that when I create content using the first content type, it can get the taxonomy term of the node of the second content type that was referenced?

To elaborate - If second content type has the term 'ABC' and the first content type references to it, then the content created from the first content type should also get 'ABC' as a term.

I hope my wording isn't too complicated. :)

I need something similar, but in the opposite direction.
I have two content types, the first (this is the one that has taxonomy terms) has a node reference field referencing the second type. What i need is to add the terms from the first type to the second one.

I hope someone can help us.

sorry to up an old issue but i'm trying to achieve the same and could not find a solution yet.

content type 1: ingredients
taxonomy for type 1: fruit, vegetables, etc
content type 2: recipes, with node reference field to content type 1 (ingredients)
when i create a recipe (content type 2) that references an ingredient (content type 1) tagged with taxonomy term "fruit", i want the new recipe to be automatically tagged with "fruit".
