jmd_admin_js: Run page-specific JS in the backend

Yes, that does it, thank you! Very nice.

This will help a client who despite clear instructions consistently enters the date field with a different format each time causing their events not to show up properly. :-)

Jim/Jakob:

Could I add a date picker to the Time Stamp and Expirey fields?

I used the jquery ui datepicker and I saw on its demo page that you can also use it to populate an alternate field with a particular date format. Whether you can populate six different fields with their own format I don’t know but theoretically it looks possible. You’ll probably need to target the input boxes via $("input[name=xyz]").datepicker({...}); (off the top of my head so check syntax pls) as they don’t have distinct #ids.

Post back if you get it working as I’m sure it will interest many.

If you have no luck, there are other jquery datepickers too.

jm/jakob:

jm: Thanks for the great plug in.

jakob: Thanks for the guidance. I got the date picker to work perfectly using your original code. When I use the code jm suggested I get a stack overflow message. I have not looked further into this (yet).

Regarding the timestamp/expirey fields you were correct on the targeting, but syntax is $(“input[title=Day]”).datepicker … I have not tried filling the multiple fiedls yet with one entry, but it is the next item on the list …

I will keep you guys updated.

jm/jakob:

Guys I now have the jquery alternate field code working fine too. My current problem is that I need one additional field to populate. When I attempt to modify the code I either break it or I get no functionality. I am continuing to work on it, but was curious if either of you had a suggestions.

I have also come across Kevin Luck’s DatePicker code but this seems to just spit errors at me, so I will continue to tinker with it.

jm: thanks for a really useful plugin

all: I’m interested to learn if progre55 or anyone else has had success with adding a date picker to the Time Stamp and Expiry field sets and if so how did you go about it? — any help or direction would be appreciated. Thanks.

woof:

I have gotten it to work (sorta) I can fill two of the three fields using this:

</script>
<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen" type="text/css" href="/js/theme/ui.all.css" />
<script src='/js/jquery-ui-personalized-1.5.3.js' type='text/javascript'></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  // Adds date-picker to Published Date Fields
$(document).ready(function(){
    $("input[title=Year]").datepicker({ dateFormat: 'yy', showOn: 'button', buttonImage: '/js/theme/calendar.gif', buttonImageOnly: true, altField: 'input[title=Month]', altFormat: 'mm'  });
  });
  // Adds date-picker to Expired Date Fields
$(document).ready(function(){
    $("input[title=article_exp_year]").datepicker({ dateFormat: 'yy', showOn: 'button', buttonImage: '/js/theme/calendar.gif', buttonImageOnly: true, altField: 'input[title=article_exp_month]', altFormat: 'mm'  });
  });

Because I could not get the third to fill, I turned to Kevin Luck’s Code

I have Kevin’s script up and running, filling in three text fields with a calendar, but I have not integrated it with the published/expired date fields (yet).

Although I should have done it earlier, I am going to attempt to take a crack at it this week.

Ok,
Imagine I have no clue of javascript, or php (wich is somewhat true) :)

The documentation on the plugin for me is really confusing.
I will explain what I did:

1- installed jmd_admin_js and stm_javascript and activated both.
2- following the Help of jmd_admin_js I went to the javascript tab in preferences, created a new js file named “article” and pasted this inside:

hideFormEl('article-image');

3- went to see if in my write page the article image was hiden, but ofcourse is still there.
4- scrach my head because I have no clue what I should do next.

can someone help me? :)

Did you actually paste the function, hideEl(), in either the article or default JS fields (the block of code under the heading “JS: default” in the help)? If you just have hideEl(...), then you have an undefined function.

Why didn’t I discover this plugin before? Very useful, thank you!

Needs only 2 small changes to work with spf_js instead of stm_javascript:

Search for txp_js
Replace with spf_js

Search for $out[] = base64_decode($row['js']);
Replace with $out[] = $row['js'];

And like with stm_javascript it will take whatever is inside the default JS form and make it available on the entire admin side, except for the plugins panel.
