This module allows you to sort views based on a delta value from an entity reference field, preventing duplicate results often seen with standard delta sorting. It's particularly useful for displaying referenced items in a specific order, such as in slideshows, and addresses issues with ordering in configuration pages.
This module is for you if:
- You have a Entity Reference field that holds a list of referenced items that you want to use in a view (a slideshow for example).
- You want to use the Entity Reference field to order the items in the view.
- You don't want to use nodequeue, entityqueue, etc...
Views actually support order by delta, but the results are usually duplicated in a way that distinct or pure distinct can't reduce the duplications.
To use this module, create a view to display the referenced items from your field, create a reference to the entity that has this field using the field as the bridge. Add a sort criteria "Order by delta (using your_field_name)", make sure you select your field in the relationship.
The main reason I created this module is to fix the Config Pages issue when trying to order items by delta.
