Drupal user hierarchical structured with taxonomy, display them in views

Question

I have grouped my users with taxonomy. I managed to create a users view which displays all of them. Now I added visible filters to with which I intend to select my users by a taxonomy term. This works too but I need to have all users displayed which are selected from this term and its children.

My taxonomy structure is quite simple:

aaa
 -bbb
 -ccc
 -ddd
eee
 -fff

Now lets say that John is tagged with bbb he should show up when I select aaa.

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

when using hierarchical select module you have an option to save the whole "term lineage" so your users will be tagged with both aaa and bbb when selectting bbb. you can use this "added" relationship in your user view afterwards.

another option is to use the "taxonomy term with depth" in your view filters and set it to a value greater than zero
