On my entity fields 'manage display' page, the entityref field has three format options:
label
rendered entity

Would be really nice if there was a way to make that label into a link

Hi there. You can find this as a setting of the "Label" formatter. Click on the small gear icon and select "Link to the referenced entity".

Hmm... I see no gear/cog next to the manage display field settings... I don't see any permissions... I tried the latest release and the dev version. Any ideas?

Continuing from #1:
It's on the Manage Display screen, not on the Manage Fields screen, ie /admin/structure/types/manage/article/display. Make sure you hit save after updating the label's display setting. I wasn't sure it worked until I managed to press that save button.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm on the Manage Display page. Here's a screenshot (Content Pages is an unlimited entityreference field). I tried clicking Save a couple times with no difference. I'm wondering if there is some conflict with Display Suite or something?
