support to relationship in views 2

i thought i can go around it by i can't

whats the different between those 2 only arguement the module supplies:

Node Hierarchy: Ancestor Node ID
Use this if you want to display any descendant of the given node

Node Hierarchy: parent
The parent id of the node.

They both do the same!!

I want to display parents details of given children NID's via argument

1) Views 2 Relationships are on the cards. I didn't want to mess with that while the views api was in flux, but now that there's a stable release I'll put it on the todo.

2) The difference between the arguments is that while Parent ID will only show immediate children, Ancestor will show grandchildren, great-grandchildren etc. If you only have 1 level of decedents on a given node they will be the same.

I am trying the latest version of nodehierarchy the Sep-29 dev and I can't get the grandchildren to show up. It only displays the children

I think I'm starting to need this very badly. I have some complex sites that have been using node references (and a bunch of other stuff) to artificially create hierarchical relationships between nodes. Nodehierarchy looked like a much better solution and was working great for so many things that I just removed all of those node references throughout my sites in favor of Nodehierarchy.

I just assumed the Views relationships were in there and then, just after it was too late to turn back, learned that all of the options I initially had to use relationships in views were no longer available to me. Help!

No, this issue is not currently affecting a live site but my development on at least one site is totally stalled until I find a solution for this. Is there any other way to filter a node based on content in its parent node?

A temporary workaround for this would be really helpful. I don't want to have to rebuild these sites the old way just for this. I'm going to start playing with calculated fields to see if I can present the parental relationship. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thx.

BTW, great work on the module. I'm looking forward to using "restrict parent-child relationships by type".

Note: It may be helpful to put "(Relationships not yet implemented)" after "Optional Views integration" on the Nodehierarchy project page. This really caught me off guard.

I had a need for this too. Here is the patch to add views relationship support.

Forgot to set to "needs review".

Thanks! This is encouraging. I'll try this when I get a chance.

I have since switched over to using Node Relativity which had this from the get go. Node Relativity has a simple implementation that makes it very easy to setup access to parent, grandparent, and great-grandparent nodes.

Unfortunately, when I switched I had to give up the nice menu integration of Node Hierarchy which I found very helpful. Maybe I can switch back or at least consider it again for future projects.

I am also in need of a grandchildren View.
