Re: [support] User Directory using Views and Advanced Profile Module

-- Quiller quiller@quiller.org http://www.quiller.org 2009/6/8 brendan, fresh-off.com hello@fresh-off.com Hello everybody - my first question to this list! I'm trying to set up a User Directory in Drupal 6, and from what I can tell, Views and the Advanced Profile Modules are looking like a good route to take. I'd like users to be able to sort through the directory based on info entered into their user profiles. For example, the users will be volunteers and volunteer orgs - so I'd like to be able to sort by that criteria, as well as things such as "sort list by volunteers available during morning hours" or "volunteers with program mgmt experience." etc. etc. Lastly, I'd like for users with Admin privileges to be able to use the directory to email or private message individual users or large groups of users that they've sorted (e.g.: volunteers available in the morning). Are the Views and Advanced Profile modules a good option for creating this type of directory? And I've set up private messaging on my site, but what will I have to do to integrate it with my directory after I've built it? And does anybody know of any tutorials on setting up user directories for D6 I'm familiar with the Views module, but haven't used it much, so assuming it's the right module - any other general suggestions would be helpful too! Thanks for any ideas or suggestions! brendan, seattle.usa -- [ Drupal support list | http://lists.drupal.org/ ]
