I'm building a site for a school, with several content types:

  • A Class holds the general info about a class: description, tuition, etc. One field in the Class type is an Entity Reference for an Instructor.
  • An Instructor is the teacher of a Class.

When adding a new Class, the user will add an Instructor using the Entity Reference field (as an "autocomplete" widget). However, I also want the list of Instructors to link to the Classes each one teaches. How do I do this without having to enter the data on both the Class page and the Instructors page?

    If you use Views you can add a reversed relationship and output the desired fields.

  • Is that the "Referencing Entity" in Relationships?

    Yup, that is the one.

Actually found a great tutorial which explains in detail how to do this: Using Views Contextual Filter and Relationship to display reference on referenced node.

Now, I have another, related, question: What if I want to include the Classes taught by the Instructor on the "list of instructors" page (which is a View)?
