About Views handlers |
In Views, a handler is an object that is part of the view and is part of the
query building flow. |
About Views plugins |
In Views, a plugin is a bit like a handler, but plugins are not directly
responsible for building the query. Instead, they are objects that are used
to display the view or make other modifications. |
