Argument Handling Code
Argument Code: But don't include the <?php ?> tags. This is the working and tested Drupal 5.1 code, but a previous comment makes me believe that replacing $type with $view['type'] should cause the code to work with older versions.
<?php
$args;
if (
$type == 'block' &&
arg(0) == 'user' &&
is_numeric(arg(1))
) {
$args[0] = arg(1); // (user/# == arg(0)/arg(1))
}
return $args; // Remember to return $args
?>Filters
Add Filter: Node: Published
Sort Criteria
Add criteria: Node: Created Time with Order=Descending
Save
Enable the block you just created
