Combine 2 CCK fields: add number to node reference
tomsm - April 28, 2009 - 13:02
I have a content type called product.
This product has a multivalue node reference field called: standard accessories.
These accessories are also of the content type products.
How can I add the number of each accessory, for example:
2 x accessory 1
5 x accessory 2
1 x accessory 3
Accessory 1, 2 and 3 are node references and 2, 5 and 1 is the number (a numeric CCK field?) of each accessory.
For each node reference, a number must be entered, 1 or higher.
How can I do this?
Are you using Ubercart? if
Are you using Ubercart? if so, there are "attribute" filters which might do what you want.
If you're dealing with numeric CCK fields, then http://drupal.org/project/views_calc might help.
No, I am not using Ubercart
No, I am not using Ubercart because it does not support prices per role.
I made a custom content type "products".
A node reference is not a numeric field, so views_calc won't work and I do not need to make a calculation.
I can create a multivalue node reference field and a multivalue numeric field.
But how can I link these field so that value 1 of field 1 is linked to value 1 of field 2, etc.?
I also would like to do
I also would like to do something like this. Anyone know how?
Mine is not a product, so I also don't have Ubercart.
Thanks,

Bump. Having the same issue
Bump. Having the same issue w/ CCK. Want to specify the quantity of a referenced node.
Seems there should be a generic way to add fields to the reference between the two nodes but I can't see to find it.

Of the top of my head I'd recommend this:
Limit # of noderefs & integer fields to 10 or some number. (If that's acceptable in your case)
Theme the node input form so that the display of the fields alternates:
int field 1 noderef 1
int field 2 noderef 2
Etc.
With a bit of jquery magic you could even have the list grow visually as required, not showing more than one empty field at a time.
