Hi
I want Node:title of a specific content type to be exposed in a view and output the specified fields of the selected node:title.
What I can see, if I select filter as Node title and expose it, I dont get the entire list of Node titles of a specific content type. There is no "is one of" option to be able to get a select list.
I am using Views 6.x-2.5.
Following is the export of my view -
$view = new view;
$view->name = 'support_page';
$view->description = 'view to select book from the drop down and list the downloads and errata of the respective title,';
$view->tag = '';
$view->view_php = '';
$view->base_table = 'node';
$view->is_cacheable = FALSE;
$view->api_version = 2;
$view->disabled = FALSE; /* Edit this to true to make a default view disabled initially */
$handler = $view->new_display('default', 'Defaults', 'default');
$handler->override_option('fields', array(
'title' => array(
'label' => '',
'alter' => array(
'alter_text' => 0,
'text' => '',

$handler->override_option('style_options', array(

$handler->override_option('exposed_block', TRUE);
$handler = $view->new_display('block', 'Block', 'block_1');
$handler->override_option('block_description', '');
$handler->override_option('block_caching', -1);
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

esmerel commentedThis issue is a year old, it's likely either resolved or no longer relevant.
Comment #7
momper commented... for me it's still relevant ... but i'm not a programmer
Comment #8
esmerel commentedOK, I'd missed this was a feature request. There is an 'is equal to' filter, but that's not quite the same. I'll move it to postponed rather than closed.

Comment #10
syakely commentedHere is a module I submitted that dose the following. http://drupal.org/node/998192
New Views Filter that creates an exposed Multi-Select filter of the current view's Node Titles. Allows user to filter by node titles. I needed it for a current project and found a few threads of others looking for this as well. This filter only works as an exposed filter. My hope is to get collaboration to improve this filter and to continue to contribute back to the community. I have not found any other modules that provide this filter.

merlinofchaos commentedNothing like this iwll go into Views, but maybe the module #10 points to is enough. If not, contrib will have to doit.
