Views

Last modified: August 20, 2008 - 22:30

The Views module provides a customized, flexible method for Drupal administrators to control how lists of nodes are retrieved and presented. Traditionally, Drupal has hard-coded most of this, particularly in how taxonomy and tracker lists are formatted.

Using Views, an administrator can create pages and blocks that list new posts of a particular type (such as forum or blog posts), create alphabetical lists by taxonomy, create weekly, monthly or yearly archive pages, create a table of posts that are flagged as unread, and much much more!

You can:

  • administer your Views at administer >> views.

Please also see the Views Snippets page for user-contributed views!

Please see the Views Documentation Page for information on how to use Views in your site and with your modules.
