Views question: How do I combine fields from different CCK types?
I've just discovered the power of CCK and Views, but got a bit stuck today. As usual, I put my trust in you cunning guys in this forum :)
I'm trying to create a View that supplies a block for my frontpage. That View should include all the fields from a corresponding CCK type (1) , but also add one field from another CCK type (2), namely a user profile (a one node per user type, see: http://drupal.org/node/130756 ).
My problem is about how to filter/argument the results. Now my result includes all the nodes from (1), but also all the results from the user profiles (2). What I want to do is to limit the results only to show unique nodes of (1), but including the corresponding field of (2) depending on which user posted the content.
Whew. This was harder to explain than I expected. Does anyone understand what I'm after anyway? If you don't, please ask!
I am of course very gratful for any help!
combine cck modules
Hi,
I have the same question. Any advice is appreciated.
I'm creating a CCK for a business directory and would like to reuse existing CCK types like: email, date, etc.
How do I combine /associate them to the same node/item?
I'm using drupal 6 atm.
cheers

Combining Nodes
Hi,
If I understand correctly you wish to combined nodes together so they are related?
If so, you can use the module "Node Relativity" and create a "Parent/Child" relationship between the nodes and then if you are to use views to show the "connected" nodes in one view - you then setup a relationship on the view.
Hopefully this helps, Garry.
