# Drupal-Like “Views” Module?

 * Hello all,
 * I added the “Content Views” plug-in to try to get the same behaviors as my old
   Drupal 7 site had.
 * On my WP in progress site, I’ve created a bunch of testimonials using “Pods –
   Custom Content Types and Fields”, but I need to have them displayed in a view
   not all separately on a menu or a page.
 * It “seems” (I could be wrong here) that this Content Views requires I pay at 
   least $39 for the Pro version to get the same Drupal views type functionality
   that I got for free with custom content types.
 * In this case, I could probably just get a Testimonials plug-in, but since I may
   create other custom content types, it’s probably a good idea to figure this out
   now.
 * So, is this WP plug-in the best (only?) one to create views for custom content
   types (assuming you pay for Pro)?
 * Thanks in advance,

 * Here’s the Drupal 7 “Views” plug-in:
 * [https://www.drupal.org/project/views](https://www.drupal.org/project/views):
    -  You like the default front page view, but you find you want to sort it differently.
    -  You like the default taxonomy/term view, but you find you want to sort it
      differently; for example, alphabetically.
    -  You use /tracker, but you want to restrict it to posts of a certain type.
    -  You like the idea of the ‘article’ module, but it doesn’t display articles
      the way you like.
    -  You want a way to display a block with the 5 most recent posts of some particular
      type.
    -  You want to provide ‘unread forum posts’.
    -  You want a monthly archive similar to the typical Movable Type/Wordpress 
      archives that displays a link to the in the form of “Month, YYYY (X)” where
      X is the number of posts that month, and displays them in a block. The links
      lead to a simple list of posts for that month.
 * In Drupal 8, the current version, this functionality is natively available.
 * —-
 * I only saw one such view capability for WP and it’s not free for custom content
   types.
 * Thanks,
