Issue Summary
Hi,
Does Node Relativity has a feature for creating the child node from the same form as the parent node's creation? What I'm looking for is being able to provide a single content creation form from which both parent and node child are created. My parent and child nodes are very simple (parent being a video, and the child being a description). But from what I understand, Node Relativity only allows you to select an already existing node as the child node.
Thanks,
Jordan

Hi Jordan!
I think that you dont need NR. If I understood what you want to do, you can create just one content type and use cck to create a field that can have multiple values (if you need multiple descriptions).
If you really want two different nodes then consider the flexifield module, but again I dont think you need it.
You may need NR if you want to link nodes that represent different objects that can exist without each other, e.g., you can have a content type to a musician and a content type to a music and both can be linked with NR or not ;). But it does not make sense to have a content type to a musician and a content to its birth date, so the birth date should be part of musician content type.

Hi oda,
Thanks for the explanation. Now, I think I need NR. Although I could use multivalued field for what I need, but the issue is letting different people to provide values for that multivalued field. By separating the multi-valued field into a content type of its own, then I can allow different people to provide different values which are all associated with the sane node.
Thanks,
Jordan
