This Module is awesome! I just can't get my hands around it . . .

I have seen this asked, there have not been any meaningful responses, if I can get my hands around it, I will write a how-to. Simply, I would like to create a Panel Page that is composed of 2 panels, the panels separately contain 2 types of custom content that are linked by taxonomy.

A concrete example: my taxonomy is Music, the terms are classical composers. There are 'Composer_Bio' nodes and 'Works' nodes. I would want to go to a Panel Page about Beethoven; in the left column, there would be a bio from the Composer_Bio node, and on the right there would be a node about the '5th Symphony.'

So I have created a Panel Page with 2 columns; it is built to display a Composer_Bio node; what I cannot get my hands around is how to add the Works node, linked by the Taxonomy term.

If anyone has any ideas that I can play around with, it would be greatly appreciated!!!

I would start by making two views both of which expect an taxonomy term id (from Music), one that lists a Composer_Bio and the other lists 'Works'. I would then create a panel that takes a taxonomy term id as a argument and place one view in each of the two panels.

Thank you vm, sounds like an excellent idea, wish I could have thought of it. I am having an issue w Panel Pages making my Events disappear, but I will try this if I can get Panels working!
