View2, Custom Fields, Contact vs. Membership View
July 09, 2009, 06:15:51 pm
I am trying to set up a view which displays Membership_Type, as well as a few custom contact fields.

If I create a view of "type CiviCRM Contacts" I can see the custom fields. But I cannot access and CiviMember fields, especially membership_type.

If I create a view of "type CiviCRM Memberships" I can see all the contact fields, EXCEPT the custom fields.

Nor, if I use a 'relationship' (in Views) does this seem to make the fields accessible in either view type.

Any ideas on this?

Update: I can, somewhat clumsily get around this by using the Exhibit module.  Basically, for an exhibit, I simply include the feeds from multiple views, which in effect creates the display I want for users.  It isn't exactly clean, but it does work.  See sample: http://dev.mariagwyn.com/content/member-list-test-1.

It would be nice however, to have this work for non-exhibit views.

This patch fixes the issue with membership fields showing up in the contact views.  http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-4759

I was not able to re-create the issue where custom fields do not show up in Membership views.  I'm on Drupal 6.13, Views 2.2.5 and CiviCRM 2.2.7

mariagwyn,

Please check that you have specified database prefixes in your settings.php correctly - see http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Views2+Integration+Module

Regards,
Danila

pretty sure the database presets are the problem, but due to a recent server switch, I can't test to be sure.  but I just retroactively discovered this as a mistake.  Will get back if this is NOT the issue.  Thanks.

@jalama: does the patch apply to civicrm 2.2.6 or 2.2.7?  i am not seeing corresponding code in 2.2.6 which is what I am currently on.

Thanks,
maria

Is there a place to download just the most recent version of civicrm.views.inc?  And, will the 2.2.8 version work on a 2.2.7 install of civicrm?
