Views

Working with Drupal Views

Drupal views display lists of content on pages or blocks (site sections) and can be customized with filters and search features. The RCCL comes with several views that work out of the box, including dedicated pages for staff, events, articles, and more.

Site administrators and developers can configure and customize views by navigating to 'Structure > Views'.

Available Views

• All Media Mentions
  This view displays all Media Mentions content type entries on a dedicated page ('YourDomain.edu/in-the-news').
• All News
  This view displays all news content entries ('YourDomain.edu/news/archive'). Additionally, each news topic has an associated views page (e.g. 'rccldemo.rutgers.edu/taxonomy/term/17', where 17 is the topic taxonomy ID).
• Centers and Institutes
  This view displays all Center/Institute content type entries on a dedicated page ('YourDomain.edu/centers-and-institutes').
• Events Promoter
  This view is the home of all event content and features a filtered search box ('YourDomain.edu/events'). Additionally, the featured events view displays one event prominently based on sort order and a list of all other featured events ('YourDomain.edu/events/featured').
• People Directory
  This view is a simplified version of the Staff Directory and displays all Person content type entries on a dedicated page ('YourDomain.edu/people/all'). Additionally, groups of Person entries have dedicated view pages based on the 'People Grouping' taxonomy ID (e.g. rccldemo.rutgers.edu/people/13).
• Staff Directory
  This view displays all Person content type entries on a dedicated page with a search box and filters ('YourDomain.edu/staff-directory'). Additionally, groups of Person entries have dedicated view pages based on the 'People Grouping' taxonomy ID (e.g. rccldemo.rutgers.edu/staff-directory/13).
