Need a view of teasers for articles tagged with just current tag page's tag

Posted by donok on January 3, 2013 at 6:17am

I need to have a views-block at the bottom of all my Tag Pages with teaser to all the Articles tagged with that page's taxonomy term. For instance, at the bottom of the "Culture" page I want a views-block of all the "Culture" tagged articles.

I have created a views-block on my default "Taxonomy Term" Views page - it previews correctly, but will not show up on the taxonomy pages themselves. Maybe this is because the views-block I have made is not "picking-up" the fact that it is on the "Culture" views page and that it should show me a teaser to all my "Culture" articles?

I tried installing and using the "Node Taxonomy Filter" module ... but, I am not sure what that does and if it's really what I need.

Help?

Thanks,
Don

Hi
have you try using contextual filters in your view settings?
i would do this, adding field tag as argument,
and configure like this :

When the filter value is NOT available

Provide default value
Type : Taxonomy term id from URL
Load default filter from term page

Perfect - worked perfectly

Perfect - worked perfectly (after removing default contextual filters from the view)

Thank you!
