Use Views instead of a node template for some node types

Question

I would like to replace the default display of some custom node types using views in Drupal 7.

For example, I have a view taking as first arguments a node id. I want this view to be used instead of the default theme template when visiting ?q=node/NID if the node NID is of a certain custom type.

Being able to add the view result at the bottom of the content of the node page would be good too.

Is this possible? How should I do, which modules should I use?

Answer 1

Could use the contemplete module and call the view programitically.

Answer 2

I found a very simple solution: create a block for the view, then as argument for the block select the following parameters: "Provide default argument" -> "node id from URL" -> Validate by node type. I then added the block in the content section. Thanks to this, the view is only displayed on the right pages!
