I'm using Panels 3 for the first time, and, am *** slowly *** getting it... I managed to get the node_view setup the way I want, but, now I'm creating a custom page.... So, naturally, I'm stuck.... I imagine it's probably pretty simple to answer / do, and that I'm just not thinking about it correctly, like I'm just overcomplicating it...
Basically, I have a view that has a number of displays, each providing a series of teasers for a particular content type:
Defaults
ContentTypeA -> filters based on content type a node type
ContentTypeB -> filters based on content type b node type
ContentTypeC -> filters based on content type c node type
The paths for the views are (for example) http://localhost/content_type_a, http://localhost/content_type_b, http://localhost/content_type_c
Basically, I'm trying to figure out how to get argument 0 (content_type_a, for example), and create a variant based on that... So, if arg(0) equals content_type_a, then I want to use Variant > ContentTypeA, etc., etc... (Also, worth noting... there is lots of different content in other regions of the page, which is why I want to use panels and not just a view...)
I'm just really confused as to whether I'm passing arguments from views to panels or panels to views, and whereabouts I set this stuff up, etc., etc....
