Hướng dẫn tạo personalized Content Feeds trong Drupal 7

One of our members wanted to allow users to create customized information feeds in Drupal.

In this tutorial, we'll show you how to do that. We'll demonstrate how to allow users to view only certain types of content.

This could be useful for news sites, but also for many other types of site where users want personalized content.

In this example, we're going to create a page of movies. Users will be able to choose to see movies only in genres that they choose.

Step #1. Taxonomy

Our first step will be to create a vocabulary and terms that will link the users to content.

Step #2. Add the Taxonomy to Content and User Profiles

Now let's add the new taxonomy to our content:

• Go to Structure > Content types.

• Add the Movie Genre vocabulary to a content type. In this example, we have a content type called Movies:

Step #3. Create the view

Now we're going to create the timeline with Views:

• Click Add next to Contextual Filters.

• Add a contextual filter for "User: Uid".

This will allow us to pull information based on the user who is looking at the view.

• Click Add next to Relationships.

• Add the relationship "Movies You Like" from the User Profile.

• Add the relationship "Taxonomy term: Content using Movie Genre".

This will allow us to pull in the fields from the content type, even if this view was initially designed to show users.

• Save the view.

Step #4. Test the view

The fastest way to test this set up is to edit your own user profile:

• Click your name in the top-right corner of the admin bar:

• Click the Edit tab.

• Add Movie Genres to your profile:

Now you can visit the view that you created in Step 3 and test whether its working.
