Anyone know how I could do this?

When a user posts a new node, I need to redirect them to a page that displays a view that lists the title of the user's new post along with posts related to that user's post (perhaps that contain the same keyword). I think this has two parts:

  • Redirect the user to a page other than the user's proper node page, but that preserves the node ID and thus has a unique URL. I can do this with Rules/actions I believe
  • Use a view with a page display with a dynamically generated URL that is that unique page
  • Apply some kind of argument in the view that pulls in the node ID
  • Do something else with views (perhaps talk to the Similar Entries module) to surface the titles of the node itself and the title of similar nodes in the list.

    Anyone have thoughts? Am I making this more complicated than it is? Any help or advice on how to use views for this would be greatly appreciated.

  • Not sure..

    This might get you nearly there as far as the view goes http://drupal.org/node/221919 and maybe this for the redirect http://drupal.org/project/node_redirect

    Good luck!
