Question

I just installed Views module for Drupal 7 and am trying to find out how to customize it.

So far, I have done the following things.

1. Created a content type specified views and named it as ‘videotest’.
2. Created a custom theme as ‘views-view-list–videotest.tpl.php’
3. The page is working without a problem.

Here is the custom template code I used (this is the default template from Views):

<?php print $wrapper_prefix; ?>
  <?php if (!empty($title)) : ?>
    <h3><?php print $title; ?></h3>
  <?php endif; ?>
  <?php print $list_type_prefix; ?>
    <?php foreach ($rows as $id => $row): ?>
      <li class="<?php print $classes_array[$id]; ?>"><?php print $row; ?></li>
    <?php endforeach; ?>
  <?php print $list_type_suffix; ?>
<?php print $wrapper_suffix; ?>

How do I prevent Views to format $row for me? I like to format each values in a node myself using foreach.

I tried to set the view style as ‘unformatted’ with unformatted custom template, but it also style each value for me.

Answer 1

You should to use fields templates not ‘Display’, ‘Style’, or ‘Row’.

Or you can use both fields in ‘Row’ template. Ex:

print $fields['you_field_value']->raw;

Name of ‘you_field_value’ show as part of link in fields list of view display.
