Hey everyone,

Is there a way that I can get the fields from the book review content type into the fields/arguments/filters in a view? I have to be able to display a bunch of book reviews and use views to make it more easy to display them by different criteria.

Any help would be awesome!
Thanks,
Randy

This would be very useful.

Did you find a way to achieve it?

No, I don't think that it can be done without major modifications to the source code. I was hoping that the module maintainer would be willing to do so.

Sorry.

To me, this is a fairly major weakness. It would be really handy if we could link to, e.g., all of the books by one authors. As it is, I have to input the data twice - once in the author field and once as taxonomy info, to be able to categorise by that data.

I am attempting to split the author name into first and last name fields, too. If my hacks prove fruitful, I will post them.
