Component body

This module provides a Views display handler called "Homebox".

It is similar to block, except additional processing is done to place exposed filters into the Homebox per-block config area and store their values with the Homebox.

If you've used the Drupal.org dashboard you may be familiar with the similarly-looking exposed filters where you can set a Homebox to follow a specific project - but they are hard coded in a custom block definition.

This allows for multiple Views blocks on the same Homebox layout with different filter configurations from the View's own exposed filters, without any custom development.

See #1083748: Put exposed views filters into the block config section (where the color settings reside) for the motivation behind this.
