On this week's podcast, Bob gives a general 'lay of the land' on the Views 2 module for Drupal. Views 1 is powerful and totally awesome, but Views 2 will rock your world (after you stare at the new interface blankly for a half hour). This podcast gives you a quick tour of the new interface in order to get you started.
Display custom fields?
Excellent--thank you!
How does one display a custom created field (like date)? I tried to add one via "Fields => Node", but to no avail.
Thanks again.
Global
Hey Justin...
If you're using DateAPI, look under "Global" instead of "node". You'll find the general date fields there.
Thanks - "Content"
Thanks Bob. It was actually under "Content"; thanks again!
awesome!
Great intro to view2. You have inspired me. I have a couple of new sites to work on and I will take the plunge now. I need to do more with D6 anyway. :)
I hope to learn more about the ajax options in views2. I need to play with that one.
Thanks much!

You saved my bacon!
I was so lost trying to figure this out on my own. Now that I understand the interface I'm able to figure out the rest of it. I'm doing a redesign of our site to take advantage of Drupal 6.
Including views in a page
Great tutorial! I've created a couple of views for myself and they work great.
This may be a dumb question, but I'm having some trouble actually calling these views into pages. For instance, I have a view I want to include in each user's profile, that shows the articles written by that particlar user. How would I "hook up" a user page to the view I've made?
This is marvellous, Bob!
Godspeed your work! These video podcast are really useful for god's work!
how can i change workflow
how can i change workflow states by clicking buttons. i can do it with inbuilt radio buttons but i want ordinary button click on contents to change its states
Access to different content
Hi,
Thanks for your screencasts. I have learned a lot from them.
Can you make a screencast about permission?
I want different groups of people to get access to different content.
There is far less documentation on that
Thanks
Thank you!
Finally someone who will show how to use Views 2 from start to finish.
Thank you for your posts.
Keep up the Good Work!
Hey,
Am in the process of changing my static website to a drupal one and have found your videos extremely helpful. Just watched this one about views and wanted to give you a big thumbs up - so thanks for taking the time to create these!
Regards
Matt
