Curated Entity Block
4 sites
No security coverage
This module allows editors to manually select and order content entities to be displayed within a block. Site builders can configure the available content types and how they are displayed using the Views module, enabling flexible content curation for various purposes.
Provides blocks where an editor hand-picks and orders existing content
entities and renders them in one chosen view mode (typically a teaser
variant). A site builder defines the selectable pool and the allowed view
modes through a View, so it's nicely configurable.
Features:
- The same block type can be reused for many curation scenarios: "featured articles", "editor's picks", a hand-sorted spotlight, and so on.
- Define multiple curated blocky by configuring multiple Views.
- Restrict selectable view-modes, min-max limits and allowed-steps (e.g. 3-6-9) in the Views-configuration.
- If the custom elements module is installed, it allows rendering picked entities via the module.
- Generated blocks work nicely with Drupal Canvas. That way the module brings flexible entity-reference selection to Canvas pages.
