I'm using References module. I have parent node where I can choose multiple child nodes for it. This parent has reference-field. I have made views to list child nodes when viewing parent node.

Now I need to have views to show parent node when viewing child node.

This should be fairly easy to do(?), but I was not able to achieve it. I tried with reverse reference relationship, but it does not show nothing on child page.

How to show parent node (in views) when viewing child node?

Create one content type view with views module,

Set relationship >> Content: Reference node (field_reference_node)

In contextual filter >> Content: Nid (relationship field_reference_node)

Pass NID of child node within argument will result all node referenced with parent content.

  • Okey. What settings should I use in Contextual filter? I have added field Content: Nid. What to choose for: "When the filter value is NOT available"? Tried with "Display all results for the specified field" and "Provide default value: Content ID from URL". But it is showing all childs, not parents.
