List nodes from a taxonomy based on a field

Question

I'm looking for the most "Drupal" way to create either a view/block (not sure about either) that contains a list with the top level items being the parent taxonomies from a certain vocabulary (4 parents in total), and then nested under each taxonomy, the first 5 products that have a certain field on them set to true.

Essentially a "featured products"-esque block that will have 4 tabs.

Answer 1

So you need to do the following:

1) Create a view for products

• Install Views Field View module
• http://drupal.org/project/views_field_view Create a view for 4 products. Make sure it has contextual filter for term id set.
• Save it

2) Create a taxonomy view

• Create taxonomy view, set display as block, so you could output it in a block
• Add 'taxonomy term parent' filter and make it equal to 0. This way you'll select only parent terms
• Select Views Field View in Fields and set it to output a view for products
• Save

So now you should have a block which outputs parent taxonomy terms and under each term you have a list of products.

Let me know how it works.
