- This module allows you to embed a View as a field in another View.
- The View in the view-field can accept argument values from other fields of the parent View, using tokens.
- Here's how:
- 1. Before you can add a view-field to a "parent" view, you must create a "child" view.
- 2. Add arguments to that child view. The parent view will be passing argument values to
- the child so that the child knows what to display. No other settings are necessary,
- but validators and "argument not present" could be set.
- 3. Create a "parent" view, if not already existing.
- 4. Add child view (Global:View field). The field must be toward the bottom of the field list,
- or at least underneath the fields that are going to be used as arguments.
- (E.g., "node id" might be used as an match between the parent and child views,
- so put the "node id" field before your Global:View field in the list.)
- 5. Select which View and Display to use for the child data (will require doing this in 2 steps
- - the field must be saved before the display selection is available).
- 6. Find which tokens are available by looking at the "Replacement patterns" list right below the Arguments setting.
- Type the token replacements, in order, separated by a comma, as the arguments for that view field.
- These values will be passed to the child. Make sure each field you are passing as an argument is completely clean,
- as in: no label, no formatting, nothing that would pass into the argument other than the desired text or number.
