Have you ever wanted to include the rendering of node within the content of another node? For example, embedding an Image/Slideshow/Video node within the body of an Article node. Or the embedding of an Author node as a bio block within a blog posting? Node Embed allows you to do that.
Node Embed provides an input filter for CKEditor & FCKEditor integration allowing a content editor the ability to embed the rendering of nodes within the body/fields of another node. This uses a View to allow for the browsing/preview/selection of a node to embed and provides a set of template suggestions that allow for the detailed control of node rendering when in embedded mode.
Details: The input filter looks for the occurrence of [[nid:23]] within the renderable content of a node. When it is found it will load/render that node and insert that output into the content. That node can be rendered with the default node-[type].tpl.php as well as node-embed--default.tpl.php and node-embed--[type].tpl.php
One thing to keep in mind, with 6.x-1.1, the module prevents a node from embedding itself on its own edit page. But, if an embedded node, embeds the current node it will result in an exhausted memory error.
