Summary

This module provides a default Entity Browser that lets you browse and select your Content from a feature-rich View that displays rows in a grid using a new View Mode. This allows for content editors to visually select what Content they want to reference while maintaining a consistent style throughout the selection process.

Currently only Nodes are supported - but support for all default Content Entities (Content Blocks, Taxonomy Terms, Users) is planned.

[Notice] Patch required for Drupal 8.3.7 and Entity Browser 1.1

The latest release of Drupal 8 broke Entity Browser exposed filters, pagers, and sorts! Please apply the latest patch from #2902831: Entity browser views that do not have use_ajax explicitly enabled are broken with 8.3.7 to work around this issue until Entity Browser 1.2 releases.

Requirements

  1. Entity Browser (dev release)
  2. Entity Embed

Installation

  1. Download Entity Browser from Drupal.org
  2. Download Entity Embed from Drupal.org
  3. Download https://github.com/desandro/masonry/archive/v3.3.2.zip and extract the download to /libraries/masonry (or any libraries directory if you're using the Libraries module)
  4. Enable Content Browser
  5. For any Entity Reference field referencing Content (Nodes), change your Form Display Mode to use "Entity Browser", then in the Widget configuration (click the gear) use "Content Browser" as your default Entity Browser.
