Matt, I found a small typo in the Help.
The ‘plugin preferences’ link points to /textpattern/index.php?event=msd_admin_datepicker rather than /textpattern/index.php?event=msd_admin_datepicker_options.
Fixed in Version 0.4. Thank you!

finally got to try this out and it’s fantastic. the fact that you can pick publish and expire dates with it makes it even better!

Hi Matt, for me the plugin prefs link points to /textpattern/index.php?event=plugin_prefs.msd_admin_datepicker
and a 404.
In Extensions, I have the datepicker set to #custom-7 and the datepicker loads fine, but choosing a date like the 31st January results in: 20102010/01/31
The prefs are set to: yyyy/mm/dd.

Jonathan, which version are you using? The prefs issue was fixed in 0.4 .
I don’t know why jQuery dateFormat works that way but y
is two digit year and yy
is four.

Hi Matt – by the way, on your home page the forum post link points to msd_google_map.
I am using v0.5 which I downloaded yesterday from your site. Thanks for the info – I switched the prefs to: yy-mm-dd
and it works fine now! Thanks for the plugin!

Re: msd_admin_datepicker: jQueryUI Date Picker in the Write Tab.
I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong here.
I downloaded and installed the plugin, and just set the preferences to use it for the publish and expire fields. I already have glz_custom_fields
installed and I’m using it’s functionality to set a date picker for a custom feld. But I also want this functionality for the core TXP fields too.
Would this be causing a conflit?
Also, in the plugin preferences do I HAVE to set a URL for the datepicker? I wasn’t sure about this bit.
Thanks.

I’ve never used glz_custom_fields, since it’s not free, so I don’t know if that is the issue.
You MUST set jQuery UI URL
and jQuery UI CSS URL
because the plugin does not contain the javascript code and css for the actual datepicker. You can host these locally though and use a url to the files on your site if you’d like.
For example, you can download the files from jQuery’s Site, upload them to your site and use http://mysite.com/path/to/jquery-ui.min.js
as the jQuery UI URL
value.

i have this working on the posted and expire fields, but if i try to use it with a custom field, it doesn’t show up.
date custom field: #date
custom field #5 is named “date”.
thanks

You need to enter the html id of the custom field which is still custom-5
