Drupal Taxonomy: the power to organize and reorganize
The Drupal Taxonomy module (aka Categories) is one of its most powerful features. Combined with its hooks, Drupal allows administrators to organize and reorganize content easily, giving more flexibility for knowledge sharing in an organization that continuously discovers better ways to share knowledge.
This tutorial has two intentions:
1.In particular: To show content managers and web developers how web content can be organized and reorganized by using Drupal's Categories module.
2.In general: To show the power of Drupal for rapid reorganization and dynamic taxonomy management – qualities that make it a good tool to facilitate knowledge sharing.<script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-5511473371854863"; google_ad_width = 180; google_ad_height = 150; google_ad_format = "180x150_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel ="7190458081"; google_color_border = "6699CC"; google_color_bg = "003366"; google_color_link = "FFFFFF"; google_color_text = "AECCEB"; google_color_url = "AECCEB"; //--></script> <script src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> -

Now you'll get more glimpses of Drupal's power. Go back to the categories screen (administer > categories) and click list terms for Topic. Each of your terms are still listed and are actually links, too. Mouseover Business and look at the status bar of your browser – it'll show something like http://myserver.com/taxonomy/term/555. (Note that the number 555 will be different in your case.)
The link above tells you that Business is term number 555. And, get this, you can show all stories that have been tagged as Business by just invoking the link “http://myserver.com/taxonomy/term/555” (using “taxonomy/term/555” will give the same results). Go ahead, try it on your browser. Type that link or just click on Business to see the stories that were tagged under Business.
What does this mean? First, without having to reprogram, you can create different ways of displaying content by invoking the taxonomy term numbers. You can create a directory page for your website, similar to Yahoo, simply by creating a story, typing the topics and linking them to the term number. You can even create custom menus using this technique.
