Hello.
SonataAdminBundle is doing just fine for me with many to many relationships if I don't specify a type in the form mapper and just accept the default multi-selects.
However, I want that nifty "Add New" button and its functionality... so like my one to many and many to one relationships, I'd like to use sonata_type_model or sonata_type_collection.
If I use sonata_type_collection I get an error "INVALID MODE", if I use sonata_type_model, I get "No Entity Manager defined..." I suspect because we're dealing with an ArrayCollection here not a single Entity.
Any tips or advice for getting the most user friendly interface for managing many to many with SonataAdminBundle?
TY,
Gabe

Hi Gabriel,
I wrote about functionality of sonata_type_model_list (attachment - sonaty_type_model_list.png ) which works for OneToMany resp. ManyToOne enitity property but it doesn't works for ManyToMany.
I want to have the multiple select from ManyToMany in popup window which shows list of entities with filter grid (attachment - sonaty_type_model_list_2.png ).
persons property is ManyToMany
->add('persons', 'sonata_type_model_list', array(
'label' => 'Persons',
'required' => false,
'btn_add' => 'Add new person', //Specify a custom label
'btn_list' => 'Select persons from the list', //which will be translated
'btn_delete' => false, //or hide the button.
), array(
'placeholder' => 'No selected'
))
I've got error.
No entity manager defined for class Doctrine\Common\Collections\ArrayCollection
Conclusion: I want to apply the functionality of sonata_type_model_list form type for ManyToMany property.

I see.
Well... I think there is not a solution exactly like you imagine... instead, you should create an Entity Reference class, and create two ManyToOne relationships to that EntityRef class from the Entities you wish to relate.
Then, in Sonata, use sonata_type_collection and add the Ref class into the FormMapper from whatever Admin class you wish to define the relationship.
You'll need an Admin class for your Ref class... and you may need to set the relationship in the Admin class' prePersist method.
