Node Reference Create

Overview

Node Reference Create is an enhancement to the nodereference autocomplete widget that allows users to reference non-existent nodes.

When no matching node is selected, the new nodes are automatically created allowing for a seamless and intuitive user experience that is similar to free tagging.

Usage

Field configuration

Once the module is activated, a new widget will appear in the manage fields page. Select the nodereference field, and then choose 'nodereference autocomplete with create' from the widgets list.

Known bugs and incompatibilities

• There is no way to select which node type will be automatically created if more than one are selected. see http://drupal.org/node/584316
• Nodes are created on node preview (see Avoiding duplicate entries when form is submitted twice for a solution.
