Views Match Reference

Ever wanted to join up a chain of content types to display different aspects about something, but couldn't get Views to join up without including node reference values you didn't want? This module joins up a reverse reference field with the original entity in a View.

Basically, where you have:

A -> B -> C -> A

This module can add an extra condition A.nid  = C.nid_a, where C.nid_a is the referenced value in "C -> A".

This is useful for circular references, where you would get all values of the particular reference field instead of just the original. You could use it, as an example, for a View with CCK Multigroup by joining a reference with a multigroup filter and adding a Match Reference filter to eliminate irrelevant rows, enabling you to build much more sophisticated filter conditions on the other multigroup fields.
