Mix of Reference and DataGrid Fields
Project description
Introduction
collective.referencedatagridfield is a mix of Reference and DataGrid fields for Plone. This is a sophisticated reference field with its own widget for adding and deleting references for both internal and external resources. Having complete support for Archetype’s Reference field functionality, it also allows external links management.
This package functionality is based on DataGridField, DataGridWidget and Archetype’s Reference field with ATReferenceBrowserWidget. It allows Plone developers to extend default Plone Reference field functionality or override existing Reference field functionality with a custom one.
Required Products.DataGridField package is automatically installed during installation procedure.
