Entity reference

Provides a field type that can reference arbitrary entities:

• A generic entity reference field
• Four widgets:
  • Two implemented on top of the Options module (Select and Radios/Checkboxes),
  • Two autocomplete widgets (one with one text field per entry, one tag-style with comma-separated entries in the same text field)
• Two formatters:
  • A "Label" formatter, with optional link that displays the label of the referenced entity (the node title, the user name, etc.)
  • A "Rendered entity" formatter, that renders the references entity using a configurable view mode
• Integration with Views (for both forward and backward references)
• Integration with Entity Metadata (and as a consequence with Search API and the like)
• Integration with Devel generate
• Integration with Feeds and Migrate (>= 2.3) for painless data import

This modules depends on Entity API and CTools.
