Using Drupal Views Arguments to Show Results Only When a Filter is Used » Danny Englander Blog. Update: Note this applies to Views 2 for Drupal 6, this may be easier for Views 3 / Drupal 7 but I have not tried it yet.

Recently I was configuring a Drupal view for a client's website that consisted of the user inputting a zip code and distance to find a store near them.

In the last section of the last chapter in this book it is only fair to reward the devoted reader with one of the most powerful, flexible and fun tools for building information structure – Views content panes. Views content panes is a module included in the Chaos tools suite project and it is an excellent bridge between Page manager/Panels and Views. The module provides a new Views display type, content pane. The two most important factors making this display type powerful are: You can control exactly how values for your contextual filters are fed to the view and what kind of data must be available in order to call the view.
