Taxonomy term related content

Question

When click on any term, content related to that term should be displayed on the right hand side of a page. I have my taxonomy tree on left sidebar using Drupal API function.

What I had done is:

1. Created view with content type, containing all products related to taxonomy terms.
2. Add a field in that content type with field type "term reference" and widget type "simple hierarchical select" module.

Now what should I do in order to filter the term based content? Any Ideas?

If I understand your question correctly, sounds like you maybe want to use a contextual filter for the taxonomy term TID, and embed as a block in the sidebar for taxonomy pages.

Steps to help:

• create a relationship, Content: Taxonomy terms on node, choose taxonomy, check require this relationship
• add contextual filter, Taxonomy Term: Term ID, select the relationship you just made, check "provide default value- Taxonomy term ID from URL, Load default filter from term page.

Just checked on a vanilla install, and that worked a charm for me...
