Revision as of 12:57, 7 September 2016
| Time | Narration |
| 00:01 | Welcome to the Spoken tutorial on Taxonomy. |
| 00:05 | In this tutorial, we will learn about:
|
| 00:11 | To record this tutorial, I am using:
You can use any web browser as per your choice. |
| 00:23 | Let us open our website which we created earlier. |
| 00:27 | Now that we have all of our Content types and fields built, we need to add categorization. And, that’s where Taxonomy comes in. |
| 00:37 | Taxonomy is nothing else but Categories. |
| 00:41 | Going back to our IMDB example, recall that we had a Movie Genre field on the IMDB site. |
| 00:50 | Well, here’s the way it works in Drupal’s taxonomy. |
| 00:54 | Movie genre would be a vocabulary and that’s the term for the main category. |
| 01:00 | And in that vocabulary, we have Terms. |
| 01:04 | So, on the screen, we have ACTION, ADVENTURE, COMEDY, DRAMA and ROMANCE. |
| 01:11 | And then under COMEDY, we have ROMANTIC, ACTION, SLAPSTICK and SCREWBALL. |
| 01:18 | We can have unlimited nested categories or terms in a Drupal vocabulary or taxonomy. |
| 01:24 | Now, here’s one thing that is really important. |
| 01:28 | One area that many sites fail on is -
using the built-in tagging widget or the tag vocabulary to categorize their content. |
| 01:37 | While it is great to be able to add categories on the fly, it has some inherent problems. |
| 01:44 | What happens if someone types a typo? |
| 01:47 | So, "energy" – e n e r g y isn’t the same as e n r e g y and Drupal doesn’t know the difference. |
| 01:56 | So, suddenly we will have 2 categories and the content is no longer connected. |
| 02:02 | That’s why we always recommend a closed taxonomy, like the one on the screen. |
| 02:08 | It’s easy to set up and we are going to do that later on, in this series. |
| 02:12 | For now understand that Taxonomy can be used in so many ways. |
| 02:17 | We’ve already seen how it creates lists of content. But we can also use taxonomy to filter and sort all kinds of Views, if we use it correctly. |
| 02:28 | Well, let’s dive into taxonomy now. |
| 02:32 | We will set up a taxonomy for our 'Events' Content type. |
| 02:35 | Click on Structure, scroll down and click on Taxonomy. |
| 02:41 | As you probably remember, we have been setting up tags all along. |
| 02:46 | But as I mentioned earlier, we want to have a closed taxonomy-
something that we can control and not something that people can easily add terms to. |
| 02:56 | So, we will click on Add vocabulary. Let’s name this as "Event Topics". |
| 03:02 | In the Description, we will type - "this is where we track the topics for Drupal events". |
| 03:09 | Click Save. Now we can add terms to our vocabulary.
Click on Add a term. |
| 03:16 | On the screen, you see a list of the terms that we are going to add –
Introduction to Drupal, Site Building, |
| 03:24 | Module Development,
Theming, and Performance. |
| 03:28 | Let’s add those – Introduction to Drupal and click Save. |
| 03:34 | And, it brings us back to this Add screen again. |
| 03:39 | Now, I’ll type "Site Building" and click Save. |
| 03:43 | "Module Development" and click Save. "Theming". I’m just pressing Enter and it automatically saves. |
| 03:53 | And then the last one is "Performance" and click Save. |
| 03:57 | We can add complex vocabulary here, but we’ll just keep this simple for now. |
| 04:03 | Clicking on Taxonomy here and listing the terms in the Event Topics. |
| 04:09 | We now have Introduction, Module Development, Performance, Site Building and Theming. |
| 04:16 | And, they’re in alphabetical order. |
| 04:19 | But, I want to arrange them in the order of difficulty. |
| 04:23 | So, I’m going to move Module Development down, Site Building up. |
| 04:27 | And, I am going to put Theming after Site Building and then Performance at the very end. |
| 04:34 | Just click and drag these. Always remember to save your changes. |
| 04:39 | Otherwise Drupal won’t remember them after you leave the screen. |
| 04:44 | So, click Save. And there we have our terms in the order that we want. |
| 04:50 | We have added the taxonomy but our Content type doesn’t know about this yet. |
| 04:56 | So, let’s go and click on Structure, Content types. |
| 05:00 | And let’s manage our Fields and the 'Events' Content type. Then click Add field. |
| 05:06 | Selecting a field type in this case is a Reference to the Taxonomy term, in the vocabulary that we just created. |
| 05:14 | So, choose Taxonomy term and let’s name this Event Topics. Click Save and continue. |
| 05:23 | And now it’s going to ask us which Type of item to reference. |
| 05:28 | Since we have already chosen that, be careful here. We will change it to Unlimited because an event can have more than one topic. |
| 05:37 | Click Save field settings. |
| 05:40 | And down here, we need to make sure that we choose the correct Reference type. |
| 05:46 | Let’s choose Event Topics. Here, this is going to allow us to create references entities if they don’t already exist. |
| 05:56 | This is called Inline entity reference. Basically, it means, if there was a topic that wasn’t in our listing, then any user can add it on the fly. |
| 06:07 | We don’t want anyone to do that. So, we will leave that unchecked. |
| 06:11 | Click Save settings. |
| 06:15 | There is one more step before we add content. |
| 06:18 | We need to set up our URL patterns and we usually do this before we add content. |
| 06:24 | This ensures that the content we add has the correct human-friendly URL. |
| 06:30 | We’ll do that later on, in this series. With this, we come to the end of this tutorial. |
| 06:36 | Let us summarize. |
| 06:39 | In this tutorial, we have learnt about:
