Not sure if this would even by the right place for this support request.

I have a user role that can create other users and assign them a location that they have added themselves (using the entity reference views widget), and I am filtering the view by the author's uid.

The user being assigned the location is prevented from editing the entity reference field by role permissions, but if he saves his account the entity reference is wiped out anyway.

Is there a way to prevent this or do it differently to avoid this?

Got some help outside :)

#1) - it seems that entity reference can filter by views already now, and for my purpose I did not need this module
#2) - by adding relationships into the view for the relationship between my users, was able to let both users see their connected locations without wiping out the already stored data
