Enhancing Views compatibility

No I don't think this is currently possible, but I think it would be fairly simple to implement. Actually, on the weekend I revisited the Views code a bit and hope to add some additional functionality in terms of sorting and filtering very soon. I will keep your request in mind and make sure it's one of the first to hit the street.

I just released 6.x-1.5 which contains a much more complete Views integration. Give it a try and let me know how it works..

I don't profess to be a Views expert either, but I must say the this exercise has made me a believer, and I thinking seriously about doing all the biblio pages using Views.

What about making your entire member profile page with views?

That is correct, if you pass the Durpal UserID as a integer value to the argument handler, then only publications which have this UID as an author will be displayed. (I just tried it, and it works for me :-)

Hey guys,

I'm still struggling getting views to work properly with biblio.
I started to experiment with a simple views page (not the views attachment) and wanted to set a hardcoded user id of biblio to test it.

When selecting biblio: drupal user id as filter, I can't set any value (apparently it automatically chooses the logged-on user).
Can anyone give me a short hint on how to combine views and biblio?

Sorry, just started drupal and im not very proficient,

cheers,
ulf

p.s.: reason to use views instead of standard biblio tabs, is that the tab doesnt show when using profile node (works just for the http://website/user/8). If there is a way to get the tabs into the profile nodes i'd be happy about that too :).

Many thanks about the argument hint. It works now.

hi,

i am trying to do the same. i have 'profile' node type created with 'content profile' module. my users are associated with biblio authors on their user account page. i am going to create a block (or a tab) which appears on such 'profile node' pages and shows the corresponding publications.

i can easily create a view for this, however the argument 'Biblio: Drupal UserID' won't use relationships. if i add a relationship 'node: content profile' and then i set up the 'biblio: drupal userID' argument to use this relationship, provide default argument, user id from url, also look for a node id and use the author of the node, the query has no results at all.

i have a user with id 1943, his 'content profile' node is nid 69.
if i pass 69 as the argument, the query will look like this:

SELECT node.nid AS nid, node.title AS node_title FROM node node  INNER JOIN users users ON node.uid = users.uid LEFT JOIN node node_users ON users.uid = node_users.uid AND node_users.type = 'academic_profile' LEFT JOIN biblio node_users__biblio ON node_users.vid = node_users__biblio.vid LEFT JOIN biblio node_users_node_users__biblio ON node_users.vid = node_users_node_users__biblio.vid LEFT JOIN biblio_contributor node_users__biblio_contributor ON node_users__biblio.vid = node_users__biblio_contributor.vid LEFT JOIN biblio_contributor node_users_node_users__biblio_contributor ON node_users__biblio.vid = node_users_node_users__biblio_contributor.vid LEFT JOIN biblio_contributor_data node_users__biblio_contributor_data ON node_users__biblio_contributor.cid = node_users__biblio_contributor_data.cid WHERE (node.status <> 0) AND (node_users__biblio_contributor_data.drupal_uid = 69)

you can see at the and that it looks like this: node_users__biblio_contributor_data.drupal_uid = 69 .. but it should have the uid of the node author, which is 1943.

if i do not use relationships, just simply use the argument, it works, but i want to use a relationship. any idea what is wrong with it?

many thanks, i love your module, keep up the good job!
