Find stories by focus (term)

One of the benefits of Drupal is the ability to sort content by terms.  On Regarding Tomorrow, content can be identified by terms in three different vocabulary groups: location of story, how many years into the future the stories occur, and which aspects of human existence are involved.  

We host a page with all available vocabulary terms.

 

Filter stories by terms

There are two options for filtering content.  The stories filter provides a focused filter of all narratives.  The filter all content page allows filtering blog entires, our site blog and narratives.  To filter down to specific areas (terms) of interest, click on the various options in each vocabulary.

  • Click on a single item to select.
  • To select multiple items, hold down the command (Mac) or control (Windows) key and click each item.  Click a second time to deselect.
  • Selecting no items means all items are selected.

Using the drop down menu above each area allows you to select how the selections affect the outcome.  

  • Is one of: This is an 'or' statement, so that any item matching at least one of the selected items will appear in the results
  • Is all of: This is an 'and' statement, so that any item appearing in the results must be tagged with all of the selected items.
  • Is none of: Reverses the selections so that any item appearing in the results do not contain any of the selected items.

 

Sorting stories

This site offers a variety of ways to sort content.  You can sort by: date posted (post date), total views, total views today (views today) and average ratings for quality of story, quality of writing or originality. 

You may also change the order based on descending (desc) or ascending (asc).
