Hello everyone ,

I have been using Drupal on my web-site www.todayjobworld.com . I tried to implement Views but i am not able to understand what are views . Even though i studied in drupal documents about views for many days but I am not able to figure out where i can use views . Please can anyone with an example tell me what are views ?

Thanks & Regards

Views is not an intuitive name for it. Think of views as lists.

If you want to list content, you use views. You can use views to list the links or the actual content. You can list it in different ways, different order, etc...

Thanks for your reply . But if you can tell me how to use it and where to use just as an example , It will make me more clear since i am not able to find out where do i apply views .

Like an example there are 4 default views comments_recent,frontpage,taxonomy_term,tracker . I want to know how do they work . If i make add another view like of any kind above then where will i see changes . This is what making me confused .

Thanks
