I would be grateful if someone can let me know of a way to solve a problem I am facing.
I manage a local sporting team's website. The site has what most team/club sites would have:
- A list of up coming events (e.g. "Regional Finals 2009", "End of season party", etc). - Image gallery - News section
The list of upcoming events is a simple view of a custom Content Type ("event"). (Fields are name, date, description.) The image gallery is a view of another CCK type, with imagefield. The news section is a view of another CCK type ("news").
So far nothing very complicated.
I would like to be able to assign taxonomy to images and news so that items can be tagged to the event that the photo was taken at (or news story was written about). This is easy to do - just create a vocabulary and add new terms to it every time there is a new event.
But the problem I face is that when a new event is scheduled, the user who adds the event to the site, will have to do two things: - Create the event node. - Add a new term to the event vocabulary.
And the problem is that my users will forget to this second step. So uploaded images will never be taged to the event. Is there a way that I can create a new node *and* add the new taxonomy term in one process flow? And can the two be managed (so that if the event title is corrected, the term should be corrected as well.)
Thanks
robin

Clark,
Here is another way to do it without just using Drupal core.
Edit the vocabulary and click on the check-box "Tags." Voila. Anyone who can add a node can add a taxonomy term when creating the node. Doesn't need to be in the vocabulary already.
