This module automatically adds HTML attributes containing the view and display names to generated tables. This makes it easier for other modules and scripts to target and customize these tables.
Features
This module automatically injects data-view-id and data-display-id HTML attributes into Views-generated
Before:
<table class="table table-striped views-table views-view-table cols-10"></table>
After implementation:
<table data-view-id="tags" data-display-id="page_1" class="table table-striped views-table views-view-table cols-10"></table>
Post-Installation
No additional configuration is required. Attributes are automatically added to all Views-generated tables immediately after module installation.
Similar Projects
The Views Attributes module offers similar functionality but differs in two key ways:
1. Applies attributes to <div> wrappers rather than <table> elements
2. Requires manual attribute configuration per View
Example of Views Attributes output
Instead of
<div class="contextual-region view view-tagss view-id-organizations view-display-id-page_1 js-view-dom-id-7cab194706e7ea37b0f9cd5e85ee7a752463f89f31e3548b9b32e7d8994">
you'll get something like:
<div class="contextual-region view view-tagss view-id-organizations view-display-id-page_1 js-view-dom-id-7cab194706e7ea37b0f9cd5e85ee7a752463f89f31e3548b9b32e7d8994" myviewsattribute="myvalue">
This approach doesn't guarantee consistent identifiers across all table elements. Views ID module provides systematic, zero-configuration attribute injection directly into target tables.
