Panels , OG & Views - is it possible to make a group home page panel ?
avior - January 18, 2008 - 11:55
Hi There
I have trying to work with OG (5.0) views (1.6) and Panels (2.0 beta2) I want to make a group home page that displays a group node & two views (group Events & group News)
I have manged to do this when the arguments to the views are static
I want to make the arguments dynamic
for example
panle url : group_panel/10
will display the group node (nid=10) in the top panel , and group events & news in two more panels
i have set 2 views og_events , and og_news that accept argument (group nid)
what do i need to do in order to pass "10" ( group nid) to the views inside the panels
Thanks

Same question
I have the same question, would be great to know how this is done. Probably like yourself, I've tried all the obvious permutations in settings between views,panels and panels views.
I have managed to do it
Hi
I have managed to do it,
note there is a group : http://groups.drupal.org/panels i have found there a lot of good stuff
Have a look at
http://drupal.org/node/201915
and the great screencast here http://drupal.org/node/210208
I have used the method node override , and set an argument to the view and the group id is sent via "panel view" context
and it works great
Good luck

i've got exactly the same problem
i know how to override a node display or a node edit form btu impossible to apply that on an OG node
if someone did that, can he explain how ?
OG group page as panel
Lets say we want group to be a class , and class has events
we want group page to be panel page that display the class and the evnets
I have created a content type called class
I have created a content type called event
In og - i have set the group home page to be "class"
I have created a view named "class_events" that accepts a OG: Group nid(s) as an argument, that filters only node type : event, providing page & block
Panles : ( i am not sure of the order , but the result is )
Panle views - create panel view by "class_events"
OG: Group nid(s) argument source : from context, required context : any context, panel argument :first
Panle Pages :
create panel page (with your layout)
set location to node/%
arguments : add node id and check "class" node type
layout : add "class_events" block
that's it - you have a class page that showing the class and the events
hope this wad helpfull
please tell me if this is working for you too , i will try to write a handbook page for this
