This module provides a configurable field formatter to display nested fields of referenced entities. It allows you to dynamically select and apply different formatters to these nested fields, enabling the display of complex, multi-level entity relationships.

Nested Entity Reference Formatter offers a powerful and flexible solution for managing complex relationships between Drupal entities. It introduces a new configurable field formatter for entity reference fields, enabling you to display nested fields and apply different formatters to them dynamically using AJAX.

This module is particularly useful when you need to display related entities and their respective fields, providing an efficient way to handle multi-level entity relationships. It offers seamless navigation and exploration of related content while maintaining a clean and organized presentation.

For instance, imagine you have a Drupal website with Taxonomy terms for categorizing separate content structures. Each entity reference field has various related fields, such as Weight, Description, Term ID, text fields, images, and even other entity reference fields. The Nested Entity Reference Formatter module allows you to select and display these related fields using appropriate formatters, providing a rich and informative representation of the structure.

Key Features

  • Infinite nesting: Supports an unlimited number of nesting levels, allowing you to display complex data structures with ease.
  • Extensible: Works with custom entities and fields, making it a versatile solution for various use cases.
  • Improved content management: By simplifying the display of nested entity references, content editors can focus on creating and managing content without worrying about complex data structures.
