Corresponding node references

Screenshots

Description

It syncs the node reference between two node types which have a nodereference to each other, so double editing nodes is no more needed. If one node has a reference the other node receives also a reference to the saved node if it is referenced in that node.

Updates

Release 6.x-4.0 doesnt require setting the options to unlimited, all is handled by cck now. The old setting to allow setting to single is no longer present since it is obsolete. To upgrade, run update.php and manualy set the allowed references on each nodereference instance. The older branches are not supported anymore so you should upgrade.

Dependencies

6.x : CCK
Node reference (comes with cck)
7.x: Node reference (included in References)

Example

Node type A has a node reference to node type B and node type B has a node reference to node type A. When you create node X of type A and reference it to node Y of type B Node Y will also receive an update in its node reference field pointing to node X.
