Using taxonomy-dependent modules

This is a list of contributed Drupal modules (and some core modules) that have been thoroughly tested to work with the categoryi module, when using the bundled taxonomy wrapperi. This list is maintained constantly, and is kept as up-to-date as possible at all times.

Please contact me if you have any new information for this page, whether it be an entry for a module that is not currently listed, or an update for a module that is already listed.

Modules that work with category

Devel
4.7 version of the generate-taxonomy.php script works with category.
Forum
4.7 version works with category.
Glossary
4.7 version works with category.
Note: you must enter the definition for each glossary term in the category's 'description' field, rather than in its 'body' field. Otherwise, glossary.module ignores the term and displays nothing.
Image
4.7 version works with category.
Img_assist
4.7 version works with category.
Organic Groups
4.7 version works with category.
Simplenews
4.7 version works with category.
Taxonomy access control
4.7 version partly works with category (see this announcement for more details).
Taxonomy browser
4.7 version works with category.

Modules that are incompatible with category

Taxonomy_menu
It is possible to use this module with category, but it is highly recommended that you use category_menu instead. Category_menu offers a number of advantages over taxonomy_menu, including the creation of real and customisable menu items, and the fact that its links point to the actual URLs of categories, rather than to special generated URLs. If you use category_menu with taxonomy_menu, you will get duplicate menu links.

Using forum with category

Here are some detailed instructions for using forum with the categoryi module:

  1. Install category, the taxonomy wrapperi, and forum.
  2. Go to your site's administer -> forums page. The first time that you access this page, forum automatically creates a 'Forums' vocabulary (which then automatically triggers the taxonomy wrapper to create a corresponding 'Forums' containeri).
  3. Go to your site's administer -> categories page, and verify that the 'Forums' container has been created.
  4. Go back to administer -> forums, and create all of your site's forums and containers on this page, and not on the administer -> categories page (the word containers is used here in the forum module sense, not in the category module sense).
  5. To create new forum topics, either go to create content -> forum topic, or click the post new topic link from one of your forums.

I just tested this now, with latest HEAD versions of Drupal and Category, and it all works fine for me.
