I have installed Directory and want to create a block to show the latest listings, say most recent 10 listings on the directory, of any category.

How do I do this? Does anyone have the code already that they would like to share? Views has an import/export feature, so sharing code should be easy.

Cheers

Jon.

I have come up with this, but I fear that it will show all published items, whether directory or stories etc.

  $view = new stdClass();
  $view->name = 'Latest_Listings';
  $view->description = 'Latest Listings';
  $view->access = array (
);
  $view->view_args_php = '';
  $view->page = TRUE;
  $view->page_title = 'Latest Listings';
  $view->page_header = '';
  $view->page_header_format = '1';
  $view->page_footer = '';
  $view->page_footer_format = '1';
  $view->page_empty = '';
  $view->page_empty_format = '1';
  $view->page_type = 'list';
  $view->url = '';
  $view->use_pager = FALSE;
  $view->nodes_per_page = '1';
  $view->block = TRUE;
  $view->block_title = 'Latest Listings';
  $view->block_header = '';
  $view->block_header_format = '1';
  $view->block_footer = '';
  $view->block_footer_format = '1';
  $view->block_empty = '';
  $view->block_empty_format = '1';
  $view->block_type = 'list';
  $view->nodes_per_block = '10';
  $view->block_more = FALSE;
  $view->block_use_page_header = FALSE;
  $view->block_use_page_footer = FALSE;
  $view->block_use_page_empty = FALSE;
  $view->sort = array (
    array (
      'tablename' => 'node',
      'field' => 'changed',
      'sortorder' => 'DESC',
      'options' => 'normal',
    ),
  );
  $view->argument = array (
  );
  $view->field = array (
    array (
      'tablename' => 'node',
      'field' => 'title',
      'label' => '',
      'handler' => 'views_handler_field_nodelink',
      'options' => 'link',
    ),
  );
  $view->filter = array (
    array (
      'tablename' => 'node',
      'field' => 'status',
      'operator' => '=',
      'options' => '',
      'value' => '1',
    ),
    array (
      'tablename' => 'node',
      'field' => 'promote',
      'operator' => '=',
      'options' => '',
      'value' => '0',
    ),
    array (
      'tablename' => 'node',
      'field' => 'created',
      'operator' => '>',
      'options' => '',
      'value' => 'now -1209600',
    ),
    array (
      'tablename' => 'node',
      'field' => 'status',
      'operator' => '=',
      'options' => '',
      'value' => '1',
    ),
  );
  $view->exposed_filter = array (
  );
  $view->requires = array(node);
  $views[$view->name] = $view;
