Component body

A module that allows simple switching of view modes at the entity level.

It works by providing a view mode switcher (select list) of allowed View Modes per bundle. For example, as an admin I can allow a content type of 'article' to be switched between the View Modes: 'Basic' and 'Advanced'. These options are presented when editing the node, so Node #1 can be presented in Basic display and Node #2 in Advanced display

This module provides the following:

  • Admin settings page to allow the entities available for View Mode Switching
  • Node type settings to select allowed View Modes available on Node edit
  • Programmatically created Switcher field, with default values
  • View Mode Switcher as a select list on Node edit form

Todo:

  1. Write SimpleTest cases
  2. Provide further Entity type support: user, taxonomy, bean
