Re: [development] how to implement hook_views_data() and add a field?

7 Jan 2009


      All I need is just a placeholder. Say, how can I implement a hook to return a static number as a field? Is it possible? Then I can theme it to whatever I want.

Hi,
All I want is just return a number, which comes from a
sql query count of my custom table. I want to represent that
as a field so I can adjust it's position in the views
ui. It doesn't sounds like very hard, right?
Views doesn't support doing things like COUNT() in
normal operation yet.
