Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
Given that 7.x-2.0-beta2 has been out for a good year and a half, with no apparent issues, is there anything blocking its release?
Also, what is the difference between the 1.x and 2.x versions? Are there substantial changes/improvements?

jstollerCan you briefly comment on how Embed Views Display 7.x-2.x differs from the display included in Views core, as well as how it differs from Embed Views Display 7.x-1.x?

grndlvl CreditAttribution: grndlvl commentedAs far as the difference between Views core and views embed the only difference after views core introduced the embed view display class is the following:
1. Allow embed exposed form to be placed in a block
2. Helper function to retrieve exposed form filters via embed_views_exposed_form($view, $display_id = '')
3. Rewrite the form action for the embedded exposed form filters to be on the current page.
4. Advanced help integration with documentation for using embed views
As far as the difference between 7.x-1.x & 7.x-2.x, 7.x-1.x only has #3 of the above list.
When this module was originally created the embed view display did not exist in core.
I am also open to feature suggestions.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Maybe it could be explained on the project's page that there is already an Embed Display in Core now and how to enable it...
