ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
|
|
|
|
As this is the next evolution of Corresponding Node References,
|
|
I would like to say thanks for all the work done over on Corresponding Node
|
|
References.
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
It syncs the entity reference between two entity types which have an entity
|
|
reference to each other, so double editing entities is no longer needed. If one
|
|
entity has a reference, the other entity also receives a reference to the saved
|
|
entity if it is referenced in that entity.
|
|
|
|
DEPENDENCIES
|
|
|
|
7.x: Entity Reference
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
|
|
|
Entity type A has an entity reference to entity type B and entity type B has an
|
|
entity reference to entity type A. When you create entity X of type A and
|
|
reference it to entity Y of type B entity Y will also receive an update in its
|
|
entity reference field pointing to entity X.
|
|
|
|
KNOWN ISSUES
|
|
|
|
- Support for entity reference fields in field collections is still a work in progress.
|
|
CER has no native support for entities that are wrapped by other entities (i.e.,
|
|
field collections), and implementing this properly will require extensive changes
|
|
to many parts of CER. For this reason, field collection support is on hold until
|
|
a few other major issues in the queue are sorted out. The thread for field collection
|
|
support is http://drupal.org/node/1729666.
|
|
|
|
- Support for multi-language entities is, at the time of this writing, flaky at best.
|
|
There is a patch to implement better multi-language support, available at
|
|
http://drupal.org/node/1961026. If this patch works well for you, PLEASE post
|
|
in that issue to say that it worked so that the patch can be reviewed by
|
|
the community before being committed into CER.
|
|
|
|
- If you're updating CER from 1.x to 2.x, you should rebuild your theme registry.
|
|
This is because the reference labels on CER's admin page were made themeable
|
|
in 2.x, so you'll need to make Drupal recognize the new theme hook.
|
|
|
|
