The view mode that is used to render a node is hard-coded to use the "full" view mode. In the comment it states that this can be altered using hooks, but the hook_entity_view_mode_alter() does not provide sufficient context. Wouldn't it be a lot more convenient if you could configure the view mode that is used?
Add a configuration option "view mode" to the admin form and use that to render the node.
None. A patch is ready and will be attached to the issue.
An added configuration option "view mode" to the admin form.
None.
An added configuration option "view mode" to the module configuration. The patch will also contain an update hook to set the configuration to "full" for existing installations.
