I have an OpenLayers Map that gives me a Table and a Map display of locations based on a Great-Circle. I have an Entity Reference from Locations to my Products content type. I want to display Products that are available at locations near me.
My problem is: I want to display two types of contact - Products and Locations. I want to display Products in a table and Locations in a map. How can I setup the table to pull the contextual arguments for the products?
I figured out that I didn't need to separate the data...just group by it and hide everything I don't want. I created the Relationship in Views and then added the Fields, then hid all the Location data I didn't want to see.

I have a requirement in which I need to show some content along with its count based on values in a select list. I wanted to display the allocated,released and resigned resources of a particular department in a selected date range. Using views, date range and department fields are created as exposed filters.
Created a content type for creating resources. The Resources content type is having action as a select list with values allocated,released,resigned. Department is another select list and date field is also added.
Please help me with an answer if views module is not enough. Provide some other solutions also. I'm using Drupal 7.
I figured out how to show node count in views. In my view I’ve some exposed filters and passed my select list cck field as contextual filter. If no result available I made the view to display summary as row count. In the template file, I’m planning to do some calculations for showing the resources count in and out of the project. Please correct me if there is anything wrong in this approach.
I have a custom post type called Event in which I want to add a location chosen from a large list of locations. To make this process easier I want to filter these locations by a category called locality.
To achieve this I have created a custom post type called Locations and a custom taxonomy called Locality. A field group holding two dropdowns one for Locality (Taxonomy) and another for Locations (Post Object) has been added to each event.
What I haven't managed to achieve is the filter of locations by the locality chosen.
I don't believe you can dynamically filter the choices of one custom field based on the current choice of another, and change that choice on the adminend. You can filter the choices that show up in your fields with a query modification that's very similar to WP_Query, and I'm pretty sure that can't be done on the fly.
I would almost cheat and instead of making posts with taxonomy assigned to them, include both the locality and the location in the post name itself.
So say, post [Museum of London] with taxonomy [London]
would become
[London][Museum of London]
[London][Hyde Park]... etc
or something similar. I'm presuming you only want to assign one location to any specific locality...
Then I'd create a relationship field and whenever I'm looking for Museum of London I'd type
London Muse...
It looks like this question is stale by now, but you would make your life easier if you added two custom fields to Event - location and locality. That way you don't have to join two tables and can easily use WP meta_query to filter posts.
What i understood is that you want that whenever you select the locality the location for it should be shown there and at last you can filter Events with locations.
=> To set location you assigned two drop-down for locality and location. You should use ajax. when i select any locality than the next drop-down has the options for the selected locality.
=> To add value in event post: you might have two options
i) you may add location as taxonomy and search using "tax query" to filter
ii) add location as parent of event and search "child of" in wp_query to filter
You have two options:
Program custom js to filter the locations field onchange of the localities field. This would not be so hard to do, because ACF sets the field id's for every field in their html. You can enqueue this js script in an admin hook (probably admin_enqueue_scripts, check this solution) and filter for the custom post type.
It can all be done in the ACF gui, but it's a bit of a trick, also because of the fact that the conditional logic for acf's taxonomy field is lacking. What you have to do is create as many Location fields in the Event acf fields as you have localities. Then set these locations to specific localities. Now comes the weird part. You would want to set the conditional logic to display if the locality is e.g. Russia, but it lacks a 'specific value' field. So you have to set two rules, one to set the 'greater than' and one to set the 'lesser than' for the id of the locality. . This will be a pain if you have a lot of localities, but it might be a good option if your localities list has no more than a few items. If you name the location fields all 'location' than you can just get the value with get_field('location'). I tested this and there is no conflict in naming all the location fields location. ACF has done a pretty decent job there, having unique names for these fields also to be able to name these fields as you whish.
I'm new to Commerce I hope some kind fellow could give me some directions here.
I am creating an ecommerce website for a printing company. I will give an example of what I require
For instance they will offer A6 flyers but these come in different specifications each with differing prices
Here is an example:
http://4frontdesigns.co.uk/Untitled-1.jpg
So down the left column are quantities of flyers and along thw top different speciifications of those flyers with the prices shown in the middle.
Any help much appreciated
Can I just add each variation of these one by one as it is not possible to just say that a certain additional attribute to the product will add so much $$ to the base price.
Would I just add each variation one by one then some how pull these all into one display?
You could use the commerce price table module like Flo suggested or look at the Price attributes Module https://www.drupal.org/project/commerce_pricing_attributes
It uses option sets and then add to (or subtract from) the price based on the selected attribute.
The answer for me was to create each product variation as its own product. So every variation gets added as a separate product.
If you are wondering how to add different variations to product such as paper size or colour, you would do this with taxonomy. Simply create a taxonomy term called colour and then add all the colours into this term that you would require.
Then when you create your product type in commerce, you would add this as an option to choose from when adding products by doing the following. Go to manange fields for the product type you want to add it for and add a new field, type of data = term reference. You will then select the desired taxonomy term and also there will be an option to 'Enable this field to function as an attribute field on Add to Cart forms.' - You want to select this!
Then what you do is create a product display and pull all these in to a single page, which then gives you drop down options to change, and the price changes accordingly in real time.
You can create a product display by creating a new content type first, call it product display... Then add a field to this content type which is a 'product reference'.
Now add new content, pick to create a product display (what we have just created) and choose the products that you want to appear on that page.
Then automatically Drupal Commerce will take care of the rest. Hope this helps someone!
As continuation of this article Drupal nested / complex / sub content types I have a new question.
As described, using Profile2 and Field collection I've managed to create multi-user CV management system:
Created a content type called CV.
Added a field_collection field to CV called education and allow unlimited entries.
Edited the education field_collection item and add a date field and a text field.
Did the same for work experience and any other fields.
Unfortunately, users should be able to reorder the records (date-text), e.g. to put some of the entries before others. For the moment being they appear in the order of their input.
How to achieve that?
Thank you!
The image below shows a field collection I have made with 3 fields.
One the left of each collection item is a drag handle.
You can re-order content using these handles.
I'm starting my first Drupal project, pretty excited :) I have a question;
the project is a hotel directory site. at sidebar I have locations list (London, Manchester, Liverpool, etc..) and filter the hotels related on location click.
So, how should I create these cities? Should I put them manually and give links manually depending on location id? or is there any better way to create this location list and linking filtering dynamically (via cms, or custom module, etc...)
Appreciate advices!!!!
This would be a good example of when to use the core (part of the base Drupal software) Taxonomy module. With Taxonomy you can set up one or more lists of terms that describe some or all of your nodes. For example, you can have a list of locations, a list of amenities (pool, sauna, golf course, etc.), and a list of price ranges (low, medium, high).
For each hotel you can select a location from the locations list, one or more amenities, and a price range. Then you can select all of the hotels that match one of the lists, using a neat feature of Taxonomy where it will return a list of those nodes.
The lists of terms are called "Vocabularies", and you'll want to create a vocabulary for each list. Go to Administer -> Taxonomy -> Add Vocabulary. Give it a name, like "Location" a description if you'd like, and choose the content types that it should be allowed to be associated with. (In your case, the hotels should probably be a custom content type that is different from the Page and Story types, but for trying this out, just pick Page for now.) There are several checkboxes at the bottom to decide on: Don't check Tags or Multiple Select, as these allow free tagging by users (images users making up city names) and also allow a node to have multiple locations. Do check the Required checkbox, as each hotel should have one.
Click Save and then click Add Terms on the vocabulary list page, and add a few locations. Then create a few hotel nodes (Pages for now) and you'll see that there is a new section in the Create Content page that is a dropdown selector that contains the locations. Choose one for each hotel, and add a few hotels in the locations that you just created.
To select the hotels for a given location, you will need to know the path associated with each term. Go back to the Taxonomy admin page and choose List Terms for the Location vocabulary. On the Terms in Location page you can get the list of hotels for a location by clicking on a location's name. The resulting page's path (e.g. example.com/taxonomy/term/2) would be what you'd use in your menu for that location. Each location will have its own term number that would be at the end of the path.
This is the simplest way to use the Taxonomy module, but it works really well with other modules like Views. Using Views you can control the format of the list of hotels for each location.
For more information, see the Taxonomy documentation and especially this sub-page called About Taxonomy.
