Issue Summary

Hi there,

This module seems the perfect place to add a feature I think would be really cool! How about adding a child node directly from a parent node, and having the child node fill automatically the nodereference link to the right parent...

This would help in a number of apps, like project->tasks node relations...

Good idea??

Thanks,
Patchak

As far as I know, there still is no standard node relationship/reference api. Are you thinking about the CCK nodereference field?

HI, yes I was thinking of the nodereference field. You could create a node type "child" directly from the parent, and then the node type child, would automatically fill up the right node name in the nodereference field...To point instantly to it's parent node...

Does that make any sense?

I am not using the CCK nodereference at the moment, so I probably won't do this, but I would look at patches if someone else wants to do it.

cheers,
