Description
I would like to be able to have a list on a page that has text links to all of a vendor's previous ads/current ads. Unfortunately, when creating a View, the "advertisement" type seems to be hiding itself from all other content types, and vice-versa if create a view based on "advertisement", all the other data is hidden from me. Will you ever "open up" this node type/content type so it can be seen by the rest of the system so we can "bind" an ad to a page with info on the advertiser?
#1
Re-assigning to the ad_vews project, which is focused on bringing proper Views support to the ad module.
#2
Hopefully it will be addressed someday. Until that time, I am having to abandon use of the Advertisement module and this Views module.
#3
Advertisement is a separate type, but there should be a way of bridging to do what you want. I'll check it out when CVS let's me back in.
Cheers,
Miles

So I guess we don't have prayer of getting this functionality (i.e. access to the Advertisement fields) in D5?
I am pulling my hair out trying to get access to the Status field so as to only display "Active" ads in View Slideshow module.
If any ideas or can point me in a direction, I would appreciate it. Thank you
