im using Drupal 7 and I want to add a new filter in views.
I have a custom table "clicks" with two fields; nid and clicks_left.
The filter should just contain a checkbox "Only display nodes with clicks left". So the filter should join node and clicks on nid..
I have read like thousands of pages of custom filters but can't get it to work =)
Please, could someone show me a working example so I understand?
I have come so far that the filter is displayed under filters but what do I need to add to do the join and get the checkbox? The relevant code below:
FILE clicks_views.inc:
function clicks_views_data() {
$data = array();
$data['clicks']['clicks_filter'] = array(
'group' => t('Clicks'),
'title' => t('Clicks left'),
'help' => t('Filter any Views based on clicks left'),
'filter' => array(
'field' => 'clicks_left',
'handler' => 'clicks_handler_filter',
),
);
return $data;
}
FILE clicks_handler_filter.inc:
<?php
class clicks_handler_filter extends views_handler_filter {
???
};
I know both functions are wrong ;)
