Hi
I'm new to Drupal (but already in love) and I created new Content Type with CCK and added a View to it. That works fine for the overview page where all articles are listed. But when I click on a specific article I get the generell view and not my own.
So, is it possible to tell Drupal that it should always use my View for a specific content type (and maybe another view for another content type). No matter if I come from the menu, the search or the Tagadelic Cloud....
thx from a newbie

When you click on a link to a node, you're not getting a view (created by the views module) you're getting the node template embedded in the page template. Views only creates lists of nodes, the presentation of the nodes themselves is handled by the theme. You can change what displays when you view a node by editing the template files or using the contemplate and/or panels modules.
For the menu, you can set a menu to point to the path you specified for the view. For a tag cloud you could use the tagadelic_views integration module (the d6 port is being worked on in the issue queue) or override the default taxonomy displays (iirc views2 includes one by default that you should be able to customize).
