We have a view, myview, that has an exposed filter title (text input). The view has Exposed form in block:Yes and so we load it onto the page under admin/structure/block. The block has a machine name of exposedform_myview_title.
We want to remove it from display and only load the view block on click of an icon. How come my view block is not loading when using ajax?
View Setup:
- view_name = ‘myview`
- when creating view, view page setting -> “create a page” was set to true
- view machine name =
mypage - view
use ajax= Yes - view block (displayed using admin/structure/block) machine name
exposedform_myview
Error message
https://somesite/path/views/ajax?view_name=myview&view_block_id=mypage 404 (not found)
myjs.js
This will load the view itself and not the exposedform_myview_title block. We want the exposedform_myview_title to be displayed.
