Module Description
This module leverages the Date Augmenter API to allow content to be associated with Individual values in a multivalued or recurring date field. Although designed to work with Smart Date, this functionality can be used with any field supported by a compatible date formatter, which includes core date fields.
The module provides a new entity type, Date Content, for which a site can create one or more bundles. If a site has more than one Date Content bundle defined, in the formatter's display configuration you can choose which bundle(s) can be used with any date field. With your Date Content bundles, you can directly attach content fields (to support simple use cases) or attach entity reference fields (to build out more complex functionality).
For example, you might have a recurring monthly meeting, but want to list a different topic and speaker for each month. In this scenario you might create a Session bundle for Date Content, and attach Topic and Speaker text fields. If the meeting was at different locations each month, and the speakers often repeat, you might change the Speaker field to be an entity reference field (to a user or Speaker content type, potentially with its own fields such as a bio and image) and implement a Location field that also allows your to associate a Location node, that uses the Address field to store address information.
