Join Tables

You can join the main (current) database table with other Joomla tables. 

Database Table: Joomla database table to get data from. For example: users

As (Alias): Short nickname for the table that is used when selecting records. For example: u

The alias for the main table is "a".

On: It defines the columns by which tables are related. For example, the "id" in the users table is related to the "created" in the current table. So, On 1 will be a.created and On 2 will be u.id

Select Fields: Enter comma separated names of columns (alias.column) to select. For example, to select name and email from the users table, enter u.name AS user_name,u.email AS user_email

Fields

Here, you can add additional columns you want to display at the front-end. These are displayed after the description of the record.

The settings are same as the List View.
