jvieille commentedBy the way, what is the difference with
http://drupal.org/project/field_inherit
Comment #2
itangalo commentedIssue of possible duplication started at:
http://drupal.org/node/927240
Me too likes this idea, yes. Go try it, I must.
Comment #3
Crell commentedThis module can inherit via any field type specified by a hook, and will allow inheriting for any field type specified by a (different) hook.
It looks like field_inherit was released around the same time this module was written, but we couldn't release it until after the project it was written for was released. Bugger. :-( We do have Views support, kind of. At least it works through Views, just not nicely.
Comment #4
mfer commentedWe should work on bringing these two projects together into one.
Comment #5
mfer commentedI sent Joel who owns the other module a message (via drupal.org contact form) to start a dialog about combining them.
Comment #6
johnbarclay commentedIt would be nice if these two could leverage the node hierarchy in d7 and perhaps be a sub module of that package. Much of the codebase and UI are doing very similar things.
Comment #7
bomarmonk commentedHere is another approach to inheriting field values from another node: http://drupal.org/project/inherit
Maybe there is something in "content inherit" that could also expand or combine with the functionality here.
