Views block: Displaying a content block on profile page (/user) with user's chosen tags as contextual filter I have a block on the user's profile page that filters content based on the supplied tag as an argument/contextual filter. Users on my site can add tags to their profile (with an autofill field pulling from the free-tag taxonomy) -- these tags are topics that they want to "follow." I would like this block to display content that is tagged with the tags they've personally chosen. thanks in advance!
I have found a solution to this. Using a user view instead of a content view was the way to go for me. Then adding appropriate relationships on the teaxonomy term.

I used the these directions:


Create a user view.
Add a contextual filter on user: uid. If no filter value is present, build a default value using the currently logged in user. (This will give you exactly one user object in your view -- the logged in user.)
Add a relationship, using the relevant taxonomy reference field on the user accounts. This will bring you information about the "interest" term for the logged in user.
Add another relationship, called "term: nodes marked with term" (or something like that). This will bring you information about all nodes marked with the interest term for the logged in user.
