I've a drupal 6 site where I want to show the latest post in a content type in full text, followed by a list of linked titles to the rest of the entries. I guess I can do this with Views 2, but I can't really figure out how. Any pointers are gladly accepted.

Best
Emil

I think what you'll need to do is make one view for the first post, then add an attachment view for the list of titles underneath. The only issue will be how to make sure the first post doesn't get repeated in the listing below.

  1. Go to admin > build > views and create a node view with the following defaults:
  • In Basic settings select fields as the row style
  • In Fields add Node: Title as a field
  • In Sort criteria add Node: Post date with sort order descending
  • In Filters add Node: type and Node: Published filters
  • Add a page display:
    • In Basic settings override both the row style (to use node) and the Items per page (set as 1).
  • Add an attachment display:
    • In Basic settings under Items per page set the offset as 1.
    • In Attachment settings set position to after and attach to the page display
  • Tweak to suit

    Absolutely fantastic! Your guide is not only excellent content wise, it's also nice looking. Italics and bolds goes a long way.

    I hope you get serious karma for this.

    Thanks again
