when i access the Metadata navigation service, i could not find the old term store any more also?
Can any one advice what might be causing this stange behavioure ? Thanks
Solution
The link between your field and the termstore is probably not correctly set.
In order to display the correct values, a termstore field (TaxonomyField) contains the id's of your termstore and termset you want to display. However this ID is different on every server. You need to make sure when using a TaxonomyField the field is configured with the correct id's on that server.
Here is some c# on how to do it. You can find the id's on the bottom of the property page of your termstore manager in SharePoint.
private void LinkMmdField(TaxonomyField field, LinkMmd linkinfo, TaxonomySession session)
{
TermStore termStore = session.TermStores[linkinfo.TermStoreName];
Group group = termStore.Groups[linkinfo.TermGroupName];
TermSet termset = group.TermSets[linkinfo.TermSetName];
if (termset != null)
{
field.SspId = termStore.Id;
field.TermSetId = termset.Id;
field.Update();
}
}
