Field Formatter module provides a collection of generic formatters for entity reference fields that output only a specific field of the referenced entity.

Formatters for entity reference fields:

Field formatter with inline settings (field_formatter_with_inline_settings)

Configure the field formatter individually to render one field of the referenced entity selectively with the same settings available like in its own entity.

Usage example: Configure your field display of a single field completely individually in a referencing entity display.

Field formatter from view display (field_formatter_from_view_display)

Display one field from the referenced entity exactly like it is configured in its own entity display mode, which is selectable.

Usage example: Configure your field display for example in media entities and reuse single fields in referencing entities.

Field linker (field_link)

Link field formatter, which will wrap output of any other formatter with a link to the parent entity. Field linker is available for all field types, not just entity reference fields.

Usage example: Field linker formatter is for example helpful in teaser view modes to link to the full display.
