What I do for mine is I have a flexinode type for just for those and I theme it so that instead of showing the title with a link to the node, it shows the title as a link to the file. That way it shows up in my view as a list of titles with the right link and the user never goes to the node itself. (I can always edit the node going through admin/content if needs be)
I don't know if it's the best way, but it worked for me.
If you want more info on specifically how, email me directly and I'll send you my .tpl file.

Hi,
I'm working with a site where we want to use taxonomy to organize files, not just pages. Does anyone have any good ideas about how to do this?
Right now, the thought is to make a separate node for each file and attach the file to that node. That works pretty well, but the problem is that if you try to list all the taxonomy items related to a particular term, it displays a list of the titles of the pages (linking to the pages) and the link to the document itself as the content. This is a bit confusing, since if you click on the title it takes you to a page with the only content being a link to the document - and you could have just clicked on the link to the document from the term list page.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks, Matthew O'Malley
