Hi,
I am trying to define an extra Field for a Listit2 Module.
That field should populate with data from another Listit2 Module where you can select multiple Elements from another module and generate Links to these Modules.
ListIt2XDefs seems to be the way to do this but since I'm really bad at php I have no clue how to do that.
So I was hoping someone has done that before and can guide me to a quick solution that even I can understand …
Thx in advance!

Maybe explaining the start steps and the end output expectations would help us help you...

Hi, thx for your reply!
I am expecting something like this:
Module 1 has an extra field that is populated with all items of module 2. The user can select multiple items from that list.
For example:
Module 1 has items like: Tom, Peter, Jerry
Module 2 has items like: Plane, Train, Car
So when I edit "Tom" there is a List with "plane", "train" and "car".
When I select "plane" and "car" the item "Tom" has all its fields plus all the fields from "plane" and "car" (module 2)
Its like attaching items of module 2 to items of module 1 or like pages and subpages (where a subpage can be a child of many pages)
I don't know if that made it any clearer, I can't really explain it any other way …

Yo,
If you expect that item in module A will have all fields from module B's items in admin panel, that's not possible.
It's possible to pull item id's or aliases into list and then load data based on that information in template, or build own sub query with Build in event system.
I have made some field packages that are not publicly available. This is one of em.
If you want you can either make it ur self or contact me via email.

pm sent – thx!
*edit*
Stikki offered a solution that would be great but unfortunately not free of charge. I'd buy it if the site was for a customer, but since the site I'm building is personal (non-commercial) I can't afford buying any solutions. Thx anyways!
So I'm still looking for a solution.
Maybe there is some module that allows to create parent and child elements?
The structure should look like this:
Tom is parent of Plane and Car
Peter is parent of Car
Jerry is parent of Train
but all parent elements and all child elements should be editable as unique items
