I have a block with visibility assigned to a given content type and given path. Call the path "xyz", so that it would be marked as xyz* in the block visibility setting field.

Now I create a view, and assign it as path xyz. Theoretically, when I go to the view at

http://somedomain.com/xyz

The block should appear, but it doesn't? I've been doing a bit of poking around, but it doesn't seem to be an issue anyone has had before.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I should mention that the view shows up just fine. Just the block assigned to that path doesn't show. :p

Thanks again for any help or advice!

And where is the views question? It's like blaming drupal for a php error in phpbb.

* Is a placeholder for the nothing, so this returns true.

dsm(drupal_match_path('node', 'node*'));

returns 1.

I guess the Views question would be: why won't the View allow the block to be seen?

Thanks.
