I was using viewfield for a long time to include in views (for instance, showing a node and its sub-nodes o showing a node and related nodes through viewfield.)
Things work wonderful and a I also implemented recursive views. But the last version (may, 24, 2009) destroyed my views. In addition nodes with an optional default value was automatically overrided.
I noted that the default value in settings dissaperad, is that true?
For instance, if you visit http://aporia.ugr.es/lsisecre the menu on the right is a recursive view constructed dinamically depending on node relationships.
Any idea?
Thank you.

This version is still in development. The last update fixed issues with upgrading from the Drupal 5 version. Before this update, fields would set
<default>as the view name if the default value was not overridden. Now the default is indicated by an empty view name, as in the Drupal 5 version. Also note that the default value is a global setting, below the allowed views setting.If you were using the development version before, you should remove
<default>from your database to restore the previous behavior.We are still waiting on an update to the patch in issue 165321 to support recursion.

Dear Darren Oh, thank you for your explanations. In fact this solved an important part of the problem. I removed <<>default<>> and default views worked again.
But there is another important question: default viewfield fields DO NOT APPEAR when they are included in a view, i.e. views which includes a content of type viewfiled do not show results IF THE the viewfield field is set to default (non default or default overriden works well).
In fact recursion I am talking about implies the use of this possibility (including a viewfield into a view, including a viewfield in the same view set in viewfield).
I know that this version is under developement, in fact I installed each revision from 5.1 to 6.12 and I reported some problems, but I think the module can be used and it is very near of stabilility, isn it? . I am grateful to the effort in developing it and, for me, is the most powerful module that I am using in Drupal. In fact I think that should be included in the core of CCK (only my opinion)
Thank you again.

That is by design. See the issue I referred to in my first comment if you are interested in working on a solution.
