Component body

Provides an optional page for each references field with a drag 'n drop UI for sorting items via a grid of teaser node displays, or other view mode.

Example uses

  • Image galleries - using a gallery content type with a node reference to an image content type, using this module gives a mechanism to manage the sorting order by seeing the actual images (via an appropriately configured view mode) instead of just seeing a list of node titles.

Installation

  • Copy the module to your sites' sites/all/modules/contrib directory.
  • On the site's modules page (admin/modules) enable the module.

Configuration

On each node reference field's settings page there will be a new setting called "References Manager view mode" which allows the new References Manager page to be enabled. By default the References Manager is not enabled, selecting a view mode will enable the page and assign the specific view mode that is used to display the referenced nodes.
