Views Block
- Install Views, Views Bulk Operations (VBO) and this module.
- Navigate to
admin/build/blocks2.
Views Filters Auto-submit
Auto-submit is initially off for all views. To turn it on, go to the Administer > Site configuration > Views Filters Auto-submit page (admin/settings/views_filters_autosubmit) and select the views where auto-submit should be active.
Auto-submit supports Ajax-enabled views as well.
Views Filters Reset
Reset is initially off for all views. To turn it on, go to the Administer > Site configuration > Views Filters Reset page (admin/settings/views_filters_reset) and select the views where the reset button should be active.
Reset button supports Ajax-enabled views as well.
Views Selective Exposed Filters
On list and checkbox exposed filters, you can specify the filter option "Limit list to result set" to only display values that are actually returned in the view's results. The filter option "Further limit list to active filters" restricts the displayed values to view results obtained by applying exposed filter values.
Views Taxonomy Summary
Think of this as a Views equivalent of Taxonomy Menu. It displays a hierarchical summary of the taxonomy terms in your view results.
- Add an argument of type Taxonomy: Term ID (with depth and summary)
- In "Action to take if argument is not present", select Summary, sorted ascending (or descending)
- In "Change summary style for Argument Taxonomy: Term ID (with depth and summary)", select Taxonomy
- In "Page: Configure summary style for Argument Taxonomy: Term ID (with depth and summary)", select the vocabulary that corresponds to your nodes.
- Enjoy!
Views Auto-refresh
- Turn AJAX on for your view
- Edit your view header to use the PHP code input format and insert the following line:
<?php
$interval = 5000;
print theme('views_autorefresh', $interval);
?>
