Description

It appears that this module is exactly what was needed, and works as expected.

However in my use case, it seems to have a limiting flaw that more node references can't be added till after it's been saved.

Example:

Type: Actor
Type: Movie

Movies have nodereference field limited to Actors.
- I've used a version of addnode here, maybe that's the issue...

Actors have nodereferrer field limited to movies, with field_actors.
- Set a Add Node Tab on the actors page.

When I click the tab the proper form is loaded and I see my nodereference multi select box
where I can reference more actors as I create the movie node.

However any references I add here are not saved, and only the reference created from nodereferrer create is created.

I had actor Will Smith, clicked add movie, added Martin Lawrence as another referenced actor and hit submit.

Everything is created fine, but the only reference is Will Smith. If I click edit, and add Martin Lawrence here, then it works just fine. Any additions are simply not saved the first time around.

Is this because I'm using addnode, or a limitation of nodereferrer create?

Other then this very small small hitch, this module seems to work exactly as expected.
