Hi, coming from http://drupal.org/node/1807120 made a new issue because it is related but not the same:

As I see here: http://drupal.org/node/1558120 you are referring to "which for entityreference fields should allow fetching from the results of a view as well, but I haven't tested that yet"
Would love to see a view working on which I can add multiple existing products from a selectlist to the product-display.

greetings,
Martijn

Title: Fetching from the results of a view so multiple selects are possible » Allow existing entities to be added by selecting from a view
Category: support » feature

This won't be possible until #1881616: Move the inline forms (add, edit, remove, reference existing) to modals is done, so maybe in time for a D8 port.

Title: Allow existing entities to be added by selecting from a view » Integrate with Inline Entity Form
Project: Inline Entity Form » Entity Reference View Widget
Version: 7.x-1.x-dev » 7.x-2.x-dev
Component: Code » User interface
Issue summary: View changes

Now that Entityreference View Widget has a 2.x branch, it could easily provide a button on the IEF widget that does this (after the dialog is closed, $form_state['inline_entity_form'][$element['#ief_id']] is modified)

Any updates here? Is this something that will be implemented?

Thanks

Entity Reference View Widget is an incredible module, especially for selecting existing content on a really large site. However, it would be nice to be able to add new content as well. Do you know of any work that combines Entity Reference View Widget with any sort of inline node creation?

Has anyone experimented with this?

Can you explain what doesn't work with Inline Entity Form, I just did a test a few minutes ago and everything worked as expected.

Forget about my comment in #5, I misunderstood the need :)

Unfortunately, looks like https://www.drupal.org/node/1881616 has been marked as "Closed won't fix" for technical reasons.

@bennybobw: There is a new module https://www.drupal.org/project/ief_dialog so #1881616: Move the inline forms (add, edit, remove, reference existing) to modals doesnt need to implement this function again

Does anyone have a clearer code example of what this means? I'm having a hard time understanding it.
