Multi-level taxonomy navigation

  • Hi there,
    I would like to know how can display a multilevel custom taxonomy menu that expands depending of the current parent / children taxonomy that is selected.

    Example:
    ——————-
    Taxonomy navigation
    – taxonomy 1
    – taxonomy 2
    – taxonomy 3
    ——————-

    When I click the “taxonomy 1” link, the page of that taxonomy loads and the “Taxonomy navigation” list now also shows the children taxonomies of taxonomy 1 which becomes bold:

    ——————-
    Taxonomy navigation
    – taxonomy 1 [selected]
    — taxonomy 1.1
    — taxonomy 1.2
    — taxonomy 1.3
    – taxonomy 2
    – taxonomy 3
    ——————-

    After that, when I click on “taxonomy 1.1” it should look like this:

    ——————-
    Taxonomy navigation
    – taxonomy 1
    — taxonomy 1.1 [selected]
    — taxonomy 1.2
    — taxonomy 1.3
    – taxonomy 2
    – taxonomy 3
    ——————-

    So, it should work as a hierarchical menu and display the active state of the current taxonomy.

    Thanks!

    Anyone has any clue?
    I have found a plugin that seems to do what I want to do, but the plugin is for “Pages” only :

    ok guys some updates: I played a little with the code and here is what I come up with. Now the categories (taxonomies) show in a hierarchic way but the list only shows up in the post page and index page. In the archive page it outputs “no category”.

    <?php 

$taxonomy     = 'mytaxonomy';
$orderby      = 'id';
$show_count   = 1;      // 1 for yes, 0 for no
$pad_counts   = 0;      // 1 for yes, 0 for no
$hierarchical = 1;      // 1 for yes, 0 for no
$title        = '';
$current_tax = get_query_var('mytaxonomy');
$hide_empty = 0;

$args = array(
  'taxonomy'     => $taxonomy,
  'orderby'      => $orderby,
  'show_count'   => $show_count,
  'pad_counts'   => $pad_counts,
  'hierarchical' => $hierarchical,
  'title_li'     => $title,
  'child_of'  => $current_tax,
 'hide_empty'  => $hide_empty,
'current_category'   => 0
);
?>
<ul>
<?php wp_list_categories( $args ); ?>
</ul>
