Loading Profile2 fields in a PHP contextual filter (views)

http://drupal.org/node/1490810#comment-6855988

You would be much better off having a regular 'current user' Views argument, and then using Views relationships to hop to the colour field from that.

Adding several arguments on different fields should also work fine.

@xiwino have you solved this issue?
i also have same requirement,
I want to filter nodes based on profile2 term reference
I have three term reference fields (one of them is in field collection field)
I want to create a list of nodes in table view where ALL the three terms match
I am not finding a way,
if you have solution please share

Going back to the code in the original issue....
Instead of

global $user;
$uid = user_load($user->uid);
$profile = profile2_load_by_user($uid, 'myprofile2');
return $profile->field_colors['und'][0]['value'];

Try something like this:

   
    // The first occurrence of field_name, on either one of their profile2 or core
    // user profiles will be used to return field values from.
    global $user;
    $profiles = profile2_load_by_user($user);
    foreach ($profiles as $profile) {
      if ($items = field_get_items('profile2', $profile, 'field_colors')) {
        break;
      }
    }
    // depending on the nature of the field, this last line may have be adjusted a bit....
    return $items[0]['value']; 
 

Taken from the http://drupal.org/project/global_filter module, which is probably not a bad solution for what you're trying to do... without coding!

Thank for this help,
as i explained in my comment I have three term references fields field_x, field_y,field_z
two are directly in profile2(field_x, and field_y) and one is (field_z) on field collection field which is attached to profile2
I don't see iteration on field collection field in the code
I wanted the three should match with terms on node which has same field_x,field_y,field_z.
if all terms match then the node will be listed in the tables along with other fields on the node
thank for trying to help

@RdeBoer thanks it worked for profile2 fields
I just selected fields in the contextual filter and selected provide default values and used php code
changed your code from

 // depending on the nature of the field, this last line may have be adjusted a bit....
    return $items[0]['value'];

to

 // depending on the nature of the field, this last line may have be adjusted a bit....
    return $items[0]['tid']; 

The content is filtered according to field_ and filed_y

how to do this for field collection fields? any help please

Hi kaizerking,

My code in #9 was more in response to the original request by xiwino for fields in general -- nothing to do with the field collections in your reply.

You are absolutely right that for TAXONOMY fields 'value' needs to be replaced by 'tid'.

If I have time I may have a look at how to extract values in field collections...

Rik , pl have a look here field extractor feature in 'When the filter value is NOT in the URL'

@kaizerking
Interesting module. Didn't know about that one.
Thanks for bringing it to my attention
Rik

For field collections i did not find any way so I used flag to flag the term by user when ever user creates(adds term ) new->flag , on update> unflag -> unchanged and flag-> changed and unflag on delete the term rule
added flag relation in views and set show only flagged terms by current user.
This along with the php code mentioned above solved as work around for me
just as info if any one is looking for same

@kaizerking, #15:

Great! Well I guess that means that between all of us we've pretty much solved this issue!
