Custom content type from several other content types | OG, Views, Node Reference

Hello,
I am having troubles figuring out the best method of creating three content types for a student radio station: Station, Show, Episode - I am hoping someone here can spare a few brilliant insights. This are many many details. This post is meant to focused on organic groups and some type of node to node relationship such as with Node Reference URL, as well as the relevant views.

Views - Consolidating rows by a field?

Views noob here and new to Acquia as well.

The data architecture is one node (Company) that has Node References to many employees (through NodeReferrer module)

Here is a link to a picture of the table I currently have: http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/5632/screenshot20091222at819.png

I would like it to display where the company only appears in the table once and the workers for that company appear as a coma separated list. (I'm also having this problem displaying this view through GMap because it adds markers on top of markers and only the top choice is displayed).

IE:

My friends and my own activity into one stream with the Activity Module

Hey there,
How can i get my friends and my own activity into one stream? There seem to be just the three options "all activity", "my activity" and "my friends activity". I thought i might be able to create a view with both mine and my friends activity, but i can't get it working.
Please, if someone could give me an idea what to look for!
Regards

Contemplate Embedded View Problem

I have a site with magazine content on it. I have two content types within this example, an "issue" and a "story" or article. With my body contemplate file for my "story" content type i have an embedded view that displays all the other articles from the same "issue" date. In other words if a magazine was published on 9-16-09 then the issue would be created for 9-16-09 and all articles/"stories" uploaded to the site using the same date would be attached to this issue.

Displaying multiple pages using one View page and one Panels 3 page.

Hi

I created a content type 'Island Profile' (to store different related types of island specific information for numerous islands) using CCK. I am using Views to query the database, to output the different types of corresponding 'Island Profile' specific information, into numerous view panes within a single view for each island. Finally I am using Panels 3 to layout the created view panes for the 'Island Profile' content type into a panel page.

I have a few questions;

Question 1.

Views 3 + Apache Solr + Acquia Drupal = The Future of Search

Robert Douglass's picture

For the last six months, Scott Reynolds has been keeping a big juicy secret. As the maintainer of the Apache Solr Views module, he knows just how cool the future of Drupal Search is going to be. His module, based on an idea and code from Thomas Seidl, lets you make custom searches against the Solr index the same way you currently make views against the MySQL database.

Panels 3 / Views 2 = Mass confusion for n00b.

I'm using Panels 3 for the first time, and, am *** slowly *** getting it... I managed to get the node_view setup the way I want, but, now I'm creating a custom page.... So, naturally, I'm stuck.... I imagine it's probably pretty simple to answer / do, and that I'm just not thinking about it correctly, like I'm just overcomplicating it...

Basically, I have a view that has a number of displays, each providing a series of teasers for a particular content type:

Defaults
ContentTypeA -> filters based on content type a node type

Need Suggestions on Theme Implementation

Hi Acquia Gurus :)

I am trying to create a layout that is similar to a wireframed version of this:
http://www.theepochtimes.com/

I was wondering if you had any suggestions on how i should begin laying this out?

My initial thought and starting point has been to create a Panel Page with a bunch of rows, columns and regions. next would be to start creating views and some sort of Node Queue implementation but before i start in and end up punching myself in the face, i was hoping to get Acquia's input.

Thanks!

How to get child to be listed under parent in view

I'm trying to create a view where all the terms under a particular vocabulary are listed on a page. It works fine except I have a couple terms that are children of other terms (parents). These children just show up in the alphabetical list mixed in with all the other terms. I can't seem to get them to show up in hierarchical order with their parent.

For example, the list is ordered as follows:

About specific all-volunteer activities
All-volunteer group leadership
Board of directors
Collaboration
Membership Development

It should be ordered as follows:
