I I understand your module extends the functionality of a Entity in the Tree aspect.

Needing to manage more than taxonomy tree aspect, I modified the "Taxonomy Term Reference Tree Widget" module to extend to all entities.

Even if conceptually we're dealing with a completely different aspect, I believe there is work to do here to merge all this.

I just post a message here, that maybe can be of any interest: http://drupal.org/node/1357996

Hey I checked out the links and they look really cool, and I want to not duplicate our efforts so if we can we should merge the projects. I have some questions, but lets start with this one:

The entity reference tree widget is a widget, and not something that arranges entities in a tree. How does the module help with arranging entities into a tree? So if I had a new entity type called doll and a bundle called Babushka. I understand that the module in your sandbox would show me a tree structure once the Babushka trees are set up, but how would I as an end user set up that a Babushka can contain many Babushkas, and how would I create the actual structure with entity instances?

Hi diwant,

Actually what you describe in your message is what OG does with the field_audience. Am I right? Initially I was only seeking to adapt the Taxo tree views module to make it work with OG, but then I thought why not adapt it to all entities that deals with the concept of hierarchy. Here comes my OG tree views module that make the link between field_audience and my widget module.

For your question, I don't have an answer because its only a widget, but I'm sure you'll find it in OG.

Hi lahode,

I am not familiar with OG, I'll take a look and see if it does do that. In the meanwhile, if you find a video or tutorial that shows how one can create such a structure using OG magic, post it here?
