This course covers one of the most popular and useful modules for the Drupal content management system. The Views module allows site administrators to create customized lists of content for use in various places. The Views module can output these content lists as pages, blocks, RSS feeds, slideshows, and numerous other formats.
This workshop will introduce participants to the basics of creating simple views through the creation of complex views involving multiple content types as well as teaching participants how to leverage the power of Views arguments.
Views can also be used as powerful tools for site administration, custom search interfaces, and dynamic displays. As time permits, the workshop will also introduce modules related to Views that can provide different style outputs and bulk operations.
