Creating a "My events" block (Drupal view)

[Carolyn Shannon]

I'd like to create a block Drupal 7 view showing the events for which I (the logged-in user) am currently registered. I want this to show on the /user page, so I'm thinking the best way to do this is to create a block view.

Anyone done this? Recipes/tips/better approaches? Thanks!

Here is a D7/Views3 one I prepared earlier ;-) Well actually just did it now as I want to build up a set of simple Views that I can share through our 'treasure trove' - I will add it there once you confirm this fires up for you okay

But the ingredients for the view recipe are (in short)
- View of type 'CiviCRM Participant'
- View Relationships of type CiviCRM Contacts: Drupal ID (which connects the Participant to the Drupal User)
- CiviCRM Drupal match table: Drupal User ID set with Default value as User ID from logged in User (which filters results to logged in user)
- garnished with whatever Event fields you require eg Title, Start Date, Event ID.

Does that work for you?

NB to import a View you must be user1 or masquerade as Admin

Perfect. Thanks so much!

Glad it helped. Will continue to add these to our library as they come up time and time again
