Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
Hello
I discover today that I can no longer use the module (security risk). I want to use an alternative solution but if I have to go through all my "nodes" that call for another "node" I will spend an eternity there.
Could we have a detailed user manual to migrate to "Entity reference"?
Thanks in advance.

https://www.drupal.org/project/entityreference_migration
You will need these two new modules:
https://www.drupal.org/project/entityreference
https://www.drupal.org/project/entity
The documentation is here: https://www.drupal.org/node/2032389
If you are using references (node and/or user) in any views, you will have to update these views after migration.
You can find all fields in an admin overview in your Drupal: /admin/reports/fields
And the fields used in views (if any): /admin/reports/fields/views-fields
Migration might be easy or complex, depending on how you are using references.
It's not necessary to migrate taxonomy references, by the way.
Be sure to have a recent backup of your files and database before you start.
If migrating is too complicated in your installation, there are good news: it seems, a new maintainer has started to work on an update: https://www.drupal.org/node/2869138
