Views catalogue

A catalogue shows items in a category, along with subcategories. With this module, this is a view of nodes that embeds a view of terms, with a taxonomy term argument which affects both: the main view shows nodes for the given term, and the embedded view shows the child terms of the given term.

Examples

This module is a generalization of the code from the image gallery system in Image module. In that module, the gallery view shows the nodes for the current term, and the child terms; or in other words, the nodes in the current gallery and the subgalleries.

For a shop site, suppose vocabulary is product type. For a particular term, say 'bicycles', path at 'catalogue/bicycles' takes this term as its argument, and for that term the output is:

1. the embedded term view showing child terms of 'bicycle', such as:
   • children's bicycles
   • mountain bikes
2. the main node view showing bikes which belong to the term 'bicycle'. These are general bicycle nodes that have not been further categorized.

Further examples and setup instructions are in the README file.

Features

• Embeds the view of child terms above the view of nodes
• Use the included term argument handler to support hackable URLs, ie, myview/grandparentterm/parentterm/term.
• Output those paths for taxonomy terms.

Recommended

To show a grid of items, use the Views Fluid Grid module.
