New book published: Drupal 5 Views Recipes News and announcements · Drupal 5.x mroswell - June 16, 2009 - 14:38 I'm looking at a fresh new copy of Drupal 5 Views Recipes. I wrote it, and I'm thrilled to see it in print. I have a mix of Drupal 5 and Drupal 6 sites out there. If you've got any Drupal 5 sites, consider this book. Appendices I'll start by mentioning the appendices, since I think that's one of the most information-rich sections of the book. (The rest of the book consists of 94 step-by-step recipes.) Appendix A - List of all default views available for Drupal 5 Appendix B - Comprehensive list of Drupal 5 field formatters, by module Appendix C - Comprehensive list of Drupal 5 style plugins, by module Appendix D - Views 1 hooks Appendix E - Modules included in recipe ingredients Appendix F - Additional resources and modules Appendix G - Selected noteworthy patches to Views, sorted by topic Appendix E can serve as an index to the recipes, and also includes a column indicating which modules are available for Drupal 6. Appendix G unlocks a whole host of functionality not available in Views 1 by default. Recipes Interesting content includes: - How to overcome the case of the missing term in taxonomy views - Views arguments - Proximity search (Find every trailhead within 6 miles of a Senior Center, for instance) - Views Bulk Operations (such as mass updates of taxonomy) - Views Fusion, and the Views Fusion Node Reference patch - Using !$ and Ctrl-U in command line editing - Detailed steps for upgrading the Date and Calendar modules from 5.x-1.x to 5.x-2.x - Three options for setting up cron - Grouped views with the Views theme wizard - Overriding themes_view_view - Table of debugging techniques, including the author's favorites - Browser plugin for searching the Contributions API page - A quick way to format SQL queries for easier reading
