I have a site with a content type "Projects," which has a field "Project Manager" that takes a user. Is there a good way to display all Projects for which a user appears as the Project Manager for that Project on that user's profile?
Update:
Here is what I have so far in user_profile.tpl.php
...
function my_module_user_view($account, $view_mode, $langcode) {
$my_field = 'field_pm';
$uid = $account->uid; // The uid of the user being viewed.
$query = "SELECT entity_id FROM {field_data_{$my_field}} WHERE {$my_field}_target_id = :uid AND bundle='user'";
$args = array(':uid' => $uid,);
$result = db_query($query, $args);
$nids = $result->fetchCol();
if (count($nids)) {
$projects = node_load_multiple($nids); // Load all projects where that user is a PM
foreach ($projects as $project) {
$account->content['field_pm_projects'][0]['#markup'] = $project->title;
}
}
}
?>
<div class="profile"<?php print $attributes; ?>>
<?php print render($user_profile); ?>
<?php print $account->content['field_pm_projects']; ?></span>
</div>
The easiest way is to use a EntityFieldQuery to achieve your desired result. Here is how you can do it:
global $user;
$query = new EntityFieldQuery();
$result = $query->entityCondition('entity_type', 'node')
->entityCondition('bundle', 'projects')
->propertyCondition('status', 1)
->propertyCondition('uid', $user->uid
->fieldCondition('field_<YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD>', '<COLUMN_NAME>', '<VALUE>', '=')
->execute();
if (!empty($result['node'])) {
$nids = array_keys($result['node']);
$nodes = node_load_multiple(array_keys($result['node']));
}

Hope this will solve your problem.GL
