>>> [!note] Migrated issue <!-- Drupal.org comment --> <!-- Migrated from issue #1045052. --> Reported by: [kmadel](https://www.drupal.org/user/288818) >>> <p><a href="https://www.drupal.org/user/288818/edit/cvs">CVS edit link for kmadel</a></p> <p></p>The current website that I have been working on has included quite a bit of code around enhancing the authoring user experience. Also, a major component of this revolves around the complex use of the CCK nodereference field, sometimes several levels deep and mostly multi-valued. We have also made heavy use of the excellent Node Relationship module to enable content authors to create and reference as they create the 'parent' content. Many of the referenced node types include CCK ImageFields and in order to ease the ordering and management of these nodereference fields for the content author, it was desirable to provide a thumbnail of an image that was part of the referenced node as a thumbnail for the nodereference node form widget. That way content authors are able to get a quick visual idea of what nodes are referenced and it also enhances the experience around reordering the node reference fields when supporting multiple values. <p>As far as I can tell, there is no existing module that has implemented this functionality.</p> <p>The Nodereferenc Widget Thumbnail module (Drupal 6 only at this point) provides a configurable way to associate an image from a cck imagefield to be used as a thumbnail for nodereference autocomplete widget on the referencing node. Currently, only the autocomplete widget is supported.</p> <p>REQUIREMENTS<br> ============</p> <p>- CCK and Node Reference.<br> <a href="http://drupal.org/project/cck">http://drupal.org/project/cck</a></p> <p>- FileField.<br> <a href="http://drupal.org/project/filefield">http://drupal.org/project/filefield</a></p> <p>- ImageField.<br> <a href="http://drupal.org/project/imagefield">http://drupal.org/project/imagefield</a></p> <p>- Imagecache.<br> <a href="http://drupal.org/project/imagecache">http://drupal.org/project/imagecache</a></p> <p>Highly Recommended<br> - Node Relationships.<br> <a href="http://drupal.org/project/noderelationships">http://drupal.org/project/noderelationships</a></p> <p>INSTALLATION<br> ============</p> <p>- Be sure to install all dependent modules.</p> <p>- Copy all contents of this package to your modules directory preserving<br> subdirectory structure.</p> <p>- Go to Administer -&gt; Site building -&gt; Modules to install module.</p> <p>- Review the settings of your nodereference fields to make sure related<br> content types are explicitly specified in the option "Content types that<br> can be referenced". And enable the 'Enable Thumbnail' checkbox.</p> <p>- Enter the image cck field name for each node type that you would like to display a nodereference widget thumbnail<br> for when be referenced via the nodereference field on another node.</p> <p>- This module has also been thoroughly tested with the excellent noderelationships module which is highly recommended.</p>
