views filter for current user with a relationship I know how to create a view that filters nodes that were authored by the current user. What I want to do is filter based on the author of a node that has a relationship with the node.

For example:
My view has a filter to show nodes of type A
type A has a field that is a reference to type B
I want a filter that shows nodes (of type A) where the referenced type B node was authored by the current user.

In D6, I did this by creating a relationship to B, then adding a filter where (B)User=Current (that is, User = current with a relationship to type B). I can't figure out how to do this in D7.

So far I have created a relationship to "Content:Author" which does not allow me to define a relationship to type B. Then I created a filter for "(author) User: Current (Yes)" but this appears to be filtering based on the author if my type A nodes.

I've tried googling, but can't seem to come up with the right keywords.
If I correctly understand the requirement then you are missing the relationship between content type 1 and 2

You need a view of nodes with:


A filter that only shows node of type A.
A relationship from node type A to node type B via your reference field.
A relationship from node type B to its author user.
A filter to restrict the user author (of content b) to the current user.
