Problem/Motivation

When an inline entity form field is added to a view using the views_entity_form_field option, the form does not save anything to the db.

Steps to reproduce

install inline_entity_form
add an entity reference field to an entity type
create a view of that entity type
add the views_entity_form_field version of the entity reference field to the view (configure using any of the inline entity form widgets: simple, complex, select etc)
save the view then go to add new content of that type and select an option or create new entity with the IEF field.
Try to save the new entity and it wont save.

I Have the same issue with inline_entity_form.

The Entity Table View/display field has -Select- but no list of entity reference source views are listed including the one that should have been in the field. Changing to a different widget (checkbox, autocomplete, etc.) does not restore the field. Since it is required you cannot save anything.
