Views Developers

Hi,

This is about a problem I have found when trying to write a feature for a module that needs to provide back reference views to nodes based on CCK node reference fields.

What I would like this to work is that the module provides a base default view that is used to provide all back refence views. This view can be modified to add more fields, change the style, add and/or expose filters, and so on. The user can also clone this view and assign the customized clone to any particular back reference relation.

Hi

Can a PHP script be assigned as a Filter criteria when one is within View Edit UI /admin/build/views/edit?

Or even establish a filter to be used by a view via some view hook()?

Thanks

Hello all,
I am curious if anyone has done something similar to this:
when creating the fields to use for my view, i want to rewrite the title link using both tokens and php.
i want to be able to check a condition (if taxonomy is present) and if so re-write that link accordingly.
is there anyone who has done this / knows if it is possible or knows of another module or patch that can solve this problem?

thanks in advance!

regards,
steve

ps... the attached image just shows the views UI with my available tokens, thought it might be on some use.

I am currently rebuilding a site in Drupal, working on this page.

Hi,

Does views supports queries like for instance

Select node_revisions.vid, MAX(node_revisions.created) FROM node_revisions

which could return the last revision created for each node?

Thanks!

I'm working on a D5 site (yes, unfortunately!) where we use taxonomy to create a "poor-man's-epublish" - basically a view of newsletter issues and articles under them. We have a vocabulary for "Newsletter issue" and just tag article nodes with the term of the issue, like "Fall 2008." Since there are other vocabularies on those nodes we're using the primary_term module to make the newletter issue the primary term.

It's all working great except for sorting: primary_term.module only implements views sorting by term id - it ignores the term weight:

At least in part, the aims of this group seem to be concerned with gathering new ideas for Views from the stumbling of others. So I hope is that this is of interest (it is to me).

I'm new to Views. Very new. I spent 2 hrs with it yesterday evening. I didn't make much progress. Here's what I would like to do,

• Construct a view of child terms, from a term.
  (note, term data in the results, not node data)

• Make a generalized path. Along the lines of /child-terms/% (% being a term).
  (I know this kind of functionality is one of the stars of Views, but I like little steps)

Hi

I have read the link http://drupal.org/node/357079, but my custom sort handler is not getting called.

Implemented is the following empty sort handler. However, when I select the activated table-style column to sort, this sort handler is ignored.
<?php
class region_views_handler_sort extends views_handler_sort {
function query() {
parent::query();
drupal_set_message('region_id custom query()');
}

function options_form(&$form, &$form_state) {
parent::options_form($form, $form_state);

Hello,
I'll start with the good ol' i'm new to drupal and creating custom modules spiel...
(btw, im using the most current versions of drupal and views)
What i need/have been trying to do is create a filter for a view that uses select dropdowns based on values that are collected from a cck text field.
(for example: a user adds a new node, there is a field called type and the user can enter whatever he wants. when the form is submitted, and he goes back to the list view, his entry in the type field now shows up in a select dropdown along with all of the other options that other users added. now he can filter the view with his own type entry.)
