Module features and usage

After enabling this module, when you edit a vocabulary or
a taxonomy term, users with the necessary permissions will
see an option to specify a view to show tagged content, and
you can also choose which display to use

You can create a new view from scratch, or clone the
taxonomy/term/* view provided by core, or a view defined in
code. Obvious it’s critical for the view to have a contextual
filter for a taxonomy term

Using this module could allow you to customize the
presentation on a view page, for example to make the exposed
filters more relevant, or even to split out the content, for
example if you wanted to list only news in the main display,
and have events and blog posts listed separately in
attachments

I found this module really helpful during some recent
work on the Drupal Event Platform, so I thought I would share
it with our listeners
