Working with field collections

Using field collections can make it easier for your users to add unlimited "grouped" content to their nodes. Through a single field-entry on the node edit page, users could add:

  • "people" information, with fields for name, e-mail, phone, and address
  • "building" information, including building name, address, and category (high-rise, parking garage, etc.)
  • or any info that's too small for the trouble of using entity reference or something similar, but needs more than a single text field to be really useful (and needs to allow for multiple entries).

We'll also discuss how to create custom formats for your field collections.
