As @halgankanet said, this is the first place I've seen an actual explanation of how to use taxonomy for anything useful, or how to create menus that actually do what I want... and it turns out that the two questions answer each other!
Drupal seems to have an incredibly steep learning curve, but @wardjame has carved a nifty staircase into it! Thank you, sir!
A very kicking video, @wardjame... A good lesson for me. Would you care to expand the tutorial by how to establish a page that lists teasers of subcats when we click on the cat1? Does it have to involve tpl coding or can be done with Views? (D7/V3)
@melodytubular I haven't had a chance to redo this on D7 yet but the process should be the same. The addition of depth to the Taxonomy view should show titles and teasers for all sub-category content.
I'm trying to learn drupal, so i followed your tut.
When I enable "Taxonomy_term", and I go to edit, and I do exactly what you do.. then I go to Cat1 and it doesn't show the content of subcat1 and subcat2.
I tried a few times with no success, is hard to you knowing if i do something wrong, but i'll give a shot, Am I doing something wrong?
@danielmk83 to enable vocabulary name to be part of the taxonomy menu just don't uncheck "Add item for vocabulary" (at about 1:23 in the vid). I'm pretty sure the taxonomy_breadcrumb module will just pick up that change automatically.
@danielmk83 OK, so per the documentation for taxonomy_breadcrumb, to show a vocabulary name in the path you need to define a page for the vocabulary. You can do that by editing the vocabulary and enter a value under "Breadcrumb path". For pathauto you would need to leave [vocab-raw] in the default taxonomy path to include the vocabulary name so it would look like [vocab-raw]/[catpath-raw]. You will need to delete and regenerate all the aliases for that to take effect.
@wardjame Pathauto module aliases only the terms path (taxonomy/term/1 etc.) and not the vocabulary path (taxonomy/term/1 2...). I suppose I should add the alias manually for the vocabulary path and then add it to the Brandcrumb path.

Thank you, no one ever explained the taxonomy depth thing anywhere before.
You have basically saved my life.
Thank you again

So, what if you want to enable vocabulary name to be part of the taxonomy menu and taxonomy breadcrumb?

@wardjame Nope. Just the taxonomy_menu module add's it automatically, but that's not the case with taxonomy_breadcrumb and pathauto.
