This module provides a tree-based display style for Drupal Views, allowing you to present hierarchical data efficiently using a single database query. It works by linking fields to represent parent-child relationships within your view.
This module provides a tree-based style plugin for Views. It is equivalent to the tree-based style template from Views 1.
It is based off of the list style. Although it generates a nested view, there is still only a single query run for the view making it quite performant.
The 1.x branch is compatible with Views 2. The 2.x branch is compatible with Views 3.
Usage
- Create a new view using the Fields row style. Populate it with the appropriate fields you want.
- Select the Tree (Adjacency model) style plugin.
- Select the linking fields in the style configuration panel. Generally, you will want to link from a nodereference field to the nid on the same node type. That is, the nodereference field is used as a pointer to the "parent" node.
- Save and enjoy.
