Hi

I have installed the Editview module, http://drupal.org/project/editview ...

Editview 6.x-1.x-dev Allows users to add and edit nodes in a view.
Depends on: Views (enabled)
Views 6.x-2.3 Create customized lists and queries from your database.
Required by: Editview (enabled), Views exporter (enabled), Views UI (enabled)

However, I am not seeing the additional view types as listed within section Select the View Type in this module's documentation:

  • Editview - table
  • Editview - compressed

I am looking these additional types here: /admin/build/views/add

Am I looking within the wrong place to find these Editview view types?

Thanks

In Editview instructions, and I looking within my Drupal site's /admin/build/views/add:

  1. Create a new view, giving it a name and limiting access to roles who are able to create and edit pages.
  2. Check the 'Provide Page View' box, and give your view an easy-to-remember url.
  3. In 'View Type', select 'Edit View'.

I am seeing neither 'Provide Page View' box nor 'View Type':'Edit View'.

Thanks

It's just that the documentation needs updating a bit.

For Drupal 6, you need to

  1. Create a new view, giving it a name and limiting access to roles who are able to create and edit pages.
  2. Add a display of type 'Page', and give your view an easy-to-remember url.
  3. In 'Style', select 'Editview'.

The README.txt file in the tarball already has this updated documentation.

I just need to update the module page.

The module page has now separate Drupal 5 and 6 sections.
The cookbook examples have been removed from the module page and are now accessible through the README files and the online help.
