Let Parent View child's result

Question

I need to setup a view for a parent which shows the result of his child. The result is a content type which has a user reference field to each student who owns the result.

Each students' profile has a user reference field to his /her parent username. I.m using profile 2 to setup parent and children account differently.

By using contextual filter and relationships, I can easily show the fields of the result to each student who owns the result but since parents' account are different, I really don't know how to show contents linked to individual student to show in their parent account.

Answer 1

• Download and install the Entity Reference module

• In parent user fields, add a field with Entity Reference and a widget of Auto complete (tag style)

For example: I named mine lalala (click picture below to enlarge)

• For Target Type, select User
• Number of Values: Unlimited (as parent could have more than 1 child)

• Then go to the parents account and start typing child's account user name, you will see the name in the drop down, select it and save.

Use a comma , to add other child account. (parent has more than 1 child)

In your view

• contextual filter of User id (uid) (which uses the parent's id)

• add a relationship of lalala Referenced Entity

  • If not, try Referencing entity, but if my memory is correct it's Referenced
