display a view / page without node
As subject, is it achievable using drupal? Let say I have a page to be displayed, but inside is all php scripts or might be just a static html page. I tried using views module, but it still require a node for a view. # Hendry
You can create a page - or any content type, panel, block, etc - that will accept and display either HTML or PHP. Be careful handing out that permission though, as users could break your site. -Benj On Wed, Jul 7, 2010 at 12:38 AM, Hendry <hendry.htc@gmail.com> wrote:

Depending on how complicated the php is you have basically two choices: 1. Implement a custom module that displays the page you want on the path you want. 2. Create a node that contains the page, using PHP input filters to add code to the page. Really if you're just planning on creating a static html page, you should just create a node and give it a path. If you want to go the custom module route, then it's as easy as creating two functions and an info file. See the module developers guide for more information. -----Original Message----- From: support-bounces@drupal.org [mailto:support-bounces@drupal.org] On Behalf Of Hendry Sent: Tuesday, July 06, 2010 11:38 PM To: support@drupal.org Subject: [support] display a view / page without node As subject, is it achievable using drupal?

Thanks for the reply, I had just go with the option 1 to implement a custom module and let the hook_menu and hook_menu_alter to handle these. Actually I will have not only one but several pages, so yeah I think it's the best option. # Hendry On Wed, Jul 7, 2010 at 10:01 PM, Metzler, David <metzlerd@evergreen.edu> wrote:

Isn't it easier to configure the view path at views configuration page? 2010/7/7 Hendry <hendry.htc@gmail.com>:

In Drupal 6 Views has support for a lot more data. If your data is in a database table that is not supported by views try the Table Wizard http://drupal.org/project/tw Otherwise, I think you're headed for a custom module with hook_menu implementation and a custom function for the callback. Regards, Greg PS If you're not on Drupal 6, use this as a good reason to upgrade. The time is close where Drupal 5 will no longer be supported. -- Greg Knaddison | 303-800-5623 | http://growingventuresolutions.com Mastering Drupal | http://www.masteringdrupal.com On Fri, Jul 9, 2010 at 8:12 AM, Hendry <hendry.htc@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Greg, yes I'm using Drupal 6, you might've skipped my previous email, I've solved this using custom module :) Thanks # Hendry On Fri, Jul 9, 2010 at 11:10 PM, Greg Knaddison <Greg@growingventuresolutions.com> wrote:
