Comment #1
that0n3guy commentedI decided that was a pretty sad patch and took a shot at making it better... Turns out, it was really easy.
Attached is a patch that lets this thing work with content taxonomy without effecting its current features at all.
I would love it if some people would test this guy out. I'll be putting it on a live site soon probably.
Comment #2
that0n3guy commentedoops, found an error.
After applying patch at #1... apply this patch (sorry the 2 aren't combined)... that way you can specify the "other" text
Comment #3
danielb commentedThat is a massive patch, and I'm not too confident about putting it in. I would prefer to see this implemented in a separate module TBH.
Comment #4
that0n3guy commentedYeah, most of the patch (like 80%) is formapi stuff, so that stuff is pretty simple. This could probably be easily be broken out into a content_taxonomy_widget.module or something. I just didn't have the time.
Comment #5
danielb commentedIf this goes ahead: #981530: Port Select (or other) module to D7
Then I can turn this project into a package of support modules for integrating the select or other element with other modules.
Comment #6
danielb commentedI'm not convinced about this patch, it does not harness the existing element, rather it duplicates the functionality for a specific case. This isn't my idea of the integration patches I'd like to support.
Comment #7
YK85 commentedCould this kindly remain in the queue for a feature request of Content Taxonomy Integration?
I have set the status to "needs work".
I hope this feature could please be considered.
Thank you!
Comment #8
danielb commentedI don't see a point unless you can come up with a reasonable integration patch.
Comment #9

Any volunteer to contribute a patch/sub-module that meets danielb requirement? We would be happy to contribute testing and documentation.
Comment #10
hachreak commented+1 :D
Comment #11
elithorkelson commentedI recently wrote up some code as a new D7 module that uses Select or Other form functionality to integrate with the Taxonomy module -- I called it Select or Other Taxonomy. If people are interested, I just posted the working code on a thread at the old Taxonomy Other project page. I'd love to know if it works for other people, or if people think it should end up a new module. Personally, I can see danielb's argument for not integrating it into his module, but the case could be made either way.
Comment #12
adam_b commentedI'd love to see this made available by some means. From a non-coder perspective it makes sense for it to be part of this module, but if the code is incompatible then a separate module would be fine.
