Views Taxonomy selection and display

Question

I am displaying a list of taxonomy terms for registered users on a Node and the user is asked to make multiple selections depending on what appeals to them. e.g what are their Top Ten song choices for 2016

I would like them to put that same list of taxonomy terms with their 2016 choices (Selected) within a View and I would like to email them that View list in 2017 and ask them to check if its still correct and or to make amendments to their choice to reflect their choice for 2017.

I can get the Views list to display the list of taxonomy terms, but how do I get check boxes to display with ticks with past choices for 2016 in Views and then store the changes for 2017?

Perhaps I'm overlooking something and this should be very simple.

Anyway, thanks in advance.

Answer 1

This can be achieved using following approach.

1. Create a content type for example "Favorite song" and add a field of "Term reference" type into this content type where widget will be "Check boxes/radio buttons" and select the vocabulary of songs for options.
2. Give permission to users to add/edit content "Favorite song",then while adding user will select their favorite songs from the list of songs.
3. Again to view/edit favorite song list of a user you can find the correct node by author of the node.

Hope it will help.
