Hi All,

A views question:

I have created a view for users - no problem. I want the visitor to be able to click on the user name and then go to a more detailed view of that user.

Can anyone suggest how I do this, please?

Cheers!

Mike

I guess I'm a little confused as to what you're after here - doesn't Drupal link users to their profiles out of the box? Are you trying to do something different - can you provide any examples?

I think you mean you want a list of users with its name as a field.

If you already have that you should have seen plenty of options to play with. You can remove the label by default (Name), Exclude the field from display, Rewrite the output of this field, Output the field as a link, Link the field to its user and even Overwrite the value to display for anonymous users. All of them are accompanied by a short explanation of what they do. And if you click on them, you'll be presented with the proper options. Just play with them and the Live preview will let you see the output straight away.

All of that in Views2 (D6). Lovely.

Just play with that and, if you have more fields, also play with the option in Row style: Fields (the little graphic to the right of it), which lets you display several fields inline (one after the others).

The core Profile module, when enabled, does this out of the box. To get the list:

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Had 'advanced profile' installed - disabled that - now clicking on user takes to full profile. Just need a little tweaking now.

Many thanks.

Cheers!
