Issue Summary

Hi,

Is it perhaps logical to assume that this module should support using Views (perhaps VBO) for the selection of nodes?

Thanks,

Thomas

This module doesn't actually do what it claims on the modules admin page:

"Widget for nodereference field which renders a teaser list and a modal panel containing a view defined by the field configuration to display the candidate nodes."

i can't see anywhere in the field configuration that allows me to select the view that I want to use, which kind of defeats the purpose of this module.

i need to be able to use exposed filters attached to the view, and the view's display style, so i can use a sortable table.

the exposed filter that i want to see is a search box, not a drop down. The default autocomplete matching the node title is useless for pretty much all content types with more than 2 or 3 CCK fields.

what is this module for, if not for solving this exact problem??

i'm using D6.

You can select the view you want to use under the "Advanced - Nodes that can be referenced (View)" section. You have to expand it and it will give you a drop down of all the views you have.

I'm having a problem with the exposed filters. They don't seem to show up in the modal dialog box. Also if I try to filter fields provided by the location module nothing shows up.
