So confusing!! I need help on this.

I just want to display the title of all my posts on the front page only.

But don't know how.

Can anyone help?

You can do that with views. You want to create a page view with a "row style" of "fields". Then just add the title field in the "fields" section. You'll probably want to filter on published nodes and sort based on the posted date descending. Once you create that view you can then change the front page location in /admin/settings/site-informati­on.

your tutorial is excellent, but your accent is insupportable :: stop talking like we are morons would be much better... Thanks anyways !

[learnbythedrop]

Well the thing is, since you're inclined to make such an ignorant comment about something I took the time to create for benefit of the community, then perhaps my tone was just right for someone with your attitude.

[fbouly]

Don't be so reactive johnny. Your accent and way to talk make me irratable but your work is great, so... who cares except me ? Shouldn't make sentiments on comments, just take it for yourself if you feel to.

Appreciate your work anyways. Sans rancune. Regards.

My accent is not something I'm going to change based on feedback I get on YouTube. It is what it is. So it's not really constructive feed back so much as it is a dig at me personally. And that I don't appreciate.

Your accent is fine, nothing wrong with it. I've watched a lot of youtube tutorials where the voiceover person has no idea what they are talking about, or is so dry and stale you are snoozing by 1:30, and you don't have either of those problems.

I don't know why you all talk so much about his accent! lol you're crazy, what accent??? Just to let you guys know, the world is a little more than USA, and there's lots and lots of people who just don't care about any accent once they're not from there, I'm from sweden and I love his tutorials! Please stop irritating him, what if he gets mad and don't wanna do tutorials anymore? we'll die!!

ps. thank you so much for this one, that's exactly what i was looking for.

worst video on youtube, good job loser

[code3design]

Thanks for the video, but honestly, I would not call this an introduction more of quick peek at what views are. I did not learn anything from your video because it did not go from A to Z but more of Y to Z. It would be good if you could do an introduction on what a view is or how to get it started from scratch.

First of all, great video! learnt a lot from this. In my humble opinion, a little familiarity with Views is required, but great work. This module could get a lot done and very easily. Thanks! and your accent is seems fine too. Kudos!

"This is Roooob, at Leeeeaaaarrrrnnn Byyyyy thhhhe Droooop" is obviously dragging out your presentation so you can sell your products. But your products are probably like this presentation so I will never buy. If you prepare your presentation than you don't waste your listener's time saying "ummmm," "uhhhhhh" and avoid that thick swallowing and smacking gross mouth sounds that distract from whatever you're (not) saying.

It's much better to start example from zero then to explain already existing stuff..

hey learnbythe drop just for future reference you can open a new tab from a link by pushing down on the mouse wheel. If you have a laptop you push both buttons at the same time.

[philipjterry]

learnbythedrop you are much better than gotdrupal - better communication style

[philipjterry]

@valerymenelas I agree someone needs to explain this in baby language plain simple step by step hold us by the hand English... What is a view? Please define in simple language for complete novices like us!

[oohasparklie]

I think your videos are brilliant and so helpful and I appreciate them. However, you really should watch your mouth noises when you're recording, you do a lot of swallowing and smacking that sounds really thick and gross and it's making it hard to watch the videos. Just thought you should know, in case you didn't notice. Otherwise, great job and thanks so much for the help!
