Summary

This module will synchronize content type fields with views fields, so that fields that are available to a content type will also be displayed in a chosen view. A use case for this would be having a view that allows the user to export all the data from a node type, every time a new field is added to the content type, it will automatically be added to the corresponding view. This avoids manual editing of the view any time a field is added or removed.

To use

On the node type editing form, you will see a list of all enabled views inside the Views Field sync group. Select the view (or views) that you want to sync up, and start adding fields. The module also has hook_views_field_sync_alter() to add options or extra modifications to the view.

Dependencies

For Drupal 6.x, this module depends on CCK and Views.
