Hi,
I have one view for which I have to alter how the content is displayed. In my case I have a list of recipes and for each one I have to add a "see inside" text with the proper link. Right now the link already exists for the title.
I've found the view but not where how it is displayed. Sorry the newbie but the original developer left without giving me the documentation.
Regards.
Hi Robert,
Did you try the "More" option in the Pager section (middle column bottom on the views3 views admin page for that particular view)?

Hi ursula,
Thanks for the reply. I am using Drupal6 and I could not find the pager section you've mentioned.
I am in the Default tab (the first one of the view) from the admin
www.foo.com/admin/build/views/edit/list_recipes
I found one Theme (right below the CSS class item) but it seems to only display the standard files (like views-view.tpl.php, views-view-unformatted.tpl.php and so on.

Hi Robert, it doesn't sound like you need to muck around in templates to achieve that.
If you change the display type to "fields", add your title and content field, then find the field called "link". In the settings for that field you can have it say any test you like, in this case "see inside".
Think it's only a matter of updating the CSS if it's even necessary (it might not be, you might be able to just add the field and be done with it).
Hope it helps.
Thanks, Patrick

Hi Patrick,
I am totally new to this views module but from my understanding the views is returning the raw data (I see it in the live preview) that should be themed somehow.
In my recipes list page I display each one with an image, with a style associated with the title, number of servings etc so I have to have a way to say hey the "field" X should use the CSS class title (so it is displayed as bold) and we should have an anchor (a href) in the title and so on.
My settings from the views (standard)
Basic settings Name: Default Title: Recipes Style: Unformatted Row style: Fields Use AJAX: No Use pager: No Items to display: 10 More link: No Distinct: No Access: Unrestricted Caching: None Exposed form in block: No Header: None Footer: None Empty text: None CSS class: None Theme: Information
If I click at the Theme: information I only see as highlighted the "default" views-view.tpl.php, views-view-unformatted.tpl.php, views-view-fields.tpl.php, views-view-field.tpl.php and I could only find them under /sites/all/modules/views/theme/
Any ideas? Tutorials for views besides the links found at drupal.org :)

Hi Robert, I don't have a d6 installation, so I cannot look for myself. However, you list in your last email the setting " more off". This might be the only setting you need to change to achieve what you need. And yes, you can add lots of CSS classes. I usually don't need them and use the default ones provided.
