Hi,
I need some help with overriding paths in panels.

I've made a custom page with view - Let's say:
department/%

How can I design this page in panels 3.
I've tried to make new variant in node_view (/node/%node) with Selection rules --> String: URL path (department/*), but it doesn't work.
Actualy if I try to change a system path lets say pages/* it works, but not in path from view.

Any ideas, please?

Panels won't override paths from other modules. you need to change the path of the view or eliminate the page display and create a content pane display and put that in the Panel.

In particular, Panels can't override paths from Views; Views is aggressive about owning those paths and Panels is aggressive about NOT owning those paths.

Hi merlinofchaos,
Thank you very much for your answer. Now I know there is no point to try this.

If you have time for one more question?
In my view I've got Two displays:

- Block display (Fields - Taxonomy: Term Term + Arguments - Taxonomy: Term , Style: List)
- Page display (with that path - "something/%" and Argument Taxonomy Term)

Ok If i remove page display and change it with content pane display, is there any way I can use content pane display for path for terms in that block.

Or perhaps if I make two content pane displays one with UL of terms and the other one with results, how can I link them?

Please note that I do not want to overide /taxonomy/term/%term page (already done this with Panels)

The original question has been answered, so I'm setting fixed. Mianet, if your second question is still relevant for you, I think it looks like it really belongs in the Views queue. Also please try not to mix different questions in one issue. :)

Issue summary: View changes

I was trying to override a View Page (tabs) added to a Organic Group Node using Panels Page manager.

After reading this I was disappointed because I spent days trying to figure this out.

I came across this module which seems to do the job. They have a video tutorial too so maybe this will help people trying to achieve the same or similar.
