Hello,

For some reason I am kind of stuck with the following problem - maybe something super simple:

I successfully have defined a Forms & Content Type for a project database and filled it with data. - Now my clients may access individual project datasets through a list. I can configure the fields I want to show on a single dataset in the View of the content type. - So far so good.

Is there a simple way to define different views on the same set of data? I know how to to this for lists. But how do I do this for content views? Should I define another Content Type - without the form part?

Thanks very much for any hint.

Kind regards,

Bernhard

Hi zwergo,

thanks for your response!
Well, in my scenario I do have just one usergroup: basic visitors of my site. - I do have all my data in my Forms & Content Type table (extending Joomla articles), i. e. project. I can create Lists & Search Types for this data. It's no problem to define several lists, all of them use the same project data. - I can define different lists with different flavours of list items all use the same project content type data. - In the list I can create links to the view [Guess so far I do understand the Seblod mechanics]. -
If the users click form a list entry to the view he/she gets allways the same view on my project data (I configure it in the content view tab of my Content Type). - Is there a simple strategy to define other content views on existing Content Type data?

Best

Hi zwergo,

thanks for sharing this idea. This should be integrated in SEBLOD...  ;)

Hi zwergo,

an interesting approach, indeed!

What about the following approach:

I do have defined a main Forms & Content Type. In addition to that I do define another Forms & Content Type, but just ignore the forms part: In the content part, I would use the necessary fields for my second view - I already defined them in the main Forms & Content Type.

Would this be the standard way to use Seblod for this use case?

Thank for any comment.

Hi Zwergo,

well, when I do have a List, I could use HTML overwrite for my list where I switch to content view 1 or 2?! - [Havn't tried this, yet.]
