Hi,

I am trying to use this module to append a value to an already existing CCK field. I want an easy way for a user to click on a link which creates a new node and automatically fills in the nid of the current page (e.g. a a nice easy way to link back to the page you are on).

This module seems to fit the bill except that it overwrites the value already in the CCK (there may be many nodes already linking to this particular node), rather than ADDING to the list of CCK fields.

Is this something we are doing wrong or a limit to this module?

Ta,
Paul.

Just to summarize: You have a original node - say node/20. You want to create a new node (say node/21) that has a field that contains node/20? Where are the other node reference fields, in node/20 or node/21?

Hi Wylbur,

Apologies for the delay, I missed this :(.

If I have node/20 which currently has a node/100 in a field (say cck_linked_nid) and I then use an anchor to prepopulate the node/20 cck_linked_nid field with node/200, it replaces what is there and doesn't append to it.

I am using this in a job/service center so one asset node may have multiple job nodes attached to it. I need each new job to be added to the list rather than replacing the existing list.

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks,
Paul.
