I guess I don't fully understand your problem, but everything can be done with Relationships for selecting the correct node, and a Proximity filter should help. I've had to do some playing around with the proximity filter, but it worked for me for D6 in the past. Never tried in any others. Just read the README and you should be fine.

Hi everyone, Any idea about the post below? Thanks!

The only problem now is that when I'm editing the view of the second type nodes, I can display the node that contains the location data, but I didn't find a way to make location-based manipulations. I can do them is the first type nodes and it will work, but what about location-based search? I would like this to be available also, and right now Drupal still doesn't recognize the location as belong to the second type node. Thanks, Daniel

Good luck!

Hi Joel, First- thank you!
So if I undestand you correctly, I have one type that contain just the location and the title, and another which is my main type that contains all the information needed as well as a reference to the first type. But - I want every user to have its own locations list. So should I allow them to make a list of nodes of first content type?

If I understand your problem correctly, I think I'd make two content types, one with a location and a title, and the other with a Reference to the first. Then you can get all the location info you want with no tweaking/programming. Plus, you can manage the locations they can choose easily. You could use taxonomy to sort them, if you wish, or even use access controls to limit them by role.

Hi everyone, I have a content type that should have a Location field. But, instead of the user filling the location for every item, I would like him to only choose a location from his own list of pre-defined locations. I've managed to create a string field that allows the user to choose from his list and contains the location ID. The problem is that in this method Drupal doesn't recognize it as a Location-type field, and therefore all the advanced options like displaing on a map are not available.
I've thought about two methods to solve it:
- When the user create the node, he will choose from his list, but Drupal will save it as it would save a node with new location.
- The data would be saved in the same method I'm using now (string field with the ID), but somehow I will tell Drupal to recognize it as a location.
Not really sure which one is better, and I don't know how to implement either one.
My Drupal version is 6.
I hope it was clear enough. If not - I will try to explain again. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot, Daniel
