I am using entity registration module for node registration.Now i wants to export the registrants.

I am using view export module to export registrants list. Its working fine

But as the registration fields is different per node i can not add a fix number of field to export.

I am trying to use global php field, its working for single column.

Is there any alternatives?

What other i have tried?

function paticipant_export_views_pre_view(&$view, &$display_id, &$args) {
          if ($view->name == 'paticipants_export') {
            views_db_object::add_item($view->current_display, 'field', 
    'field_data_field_first_name_1', 'field_first_name_1', 
$options = array(
            $handler->display->display_options['fields']['field_first_name_1']['id'] = 'field_first_name_1',
            $handler->display->display_options['fields']['field_first_name_1']['table'] = 'field_data_field_first_name_1',
            $handler->display->display_options['fields']['field_first_name_1']['field'] = 'field_first_name_1',

            ), $id = NULL);


          }
        }

Thanks for your suggestion.

  • Can i achieve this altering the view or can i add fields dynamically to a view?

  • I doubt it as it would have to be in hook views pre build. Which is like really only 2 lines of php to make a new named view.

  • Right you can't use hook_views_pre_view because the query has already run and the data retrieved by Views. This is why you could use hooks_views_pre_build to add fields before the query is built, a similar question (changing a view before it is run) can be seen here: drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/1561/… alternatively try this dropbucket.org/node/1178

This might be a really stupid suggestion but why dont you just edit the view and add all the registration fields manually. The view will have empty cells for fields thats not a part of the registration type at a specific row, but thats something you'll get anyways.

Another way to go is to skip views alltogether and export data with a module of your own using the entity api. You aparently are writing a module to override view fields above so you have already started down that road (so to speak)
