This fieldtype for EE2 is a one to many relationship tool, on a shoestring. It lets you select entries from multiple channels, and store their entry ids in a 12|22|44|45 format. The fieldtype has a drag drop interface for ordering selections, and entry ids are stored in your selection order.
It also lets you store the selected entries as native EE relationships, so that you can use the reverse_related_entries tag to work entries from the other direction.
The output from the field is primarily for use in embeds to templates with exp:channel:entries tags, and using the fixed_order parameter.

Good add-on. Used to be free though.

I was looking for a simple way to setup a 1 to n relationships for relating n galleries to 1 album. The Selectatron was just what I needed.

The selectatron turns out to be quite a find.
I’ve always thought the native relationship field was too basic to be of much use, and i’ve always thought that the commercial relationship add-on that is out there is a) too expensive and b) overkill for 99% of my needs.
This is really very good.
