Re: msd_admin_datepicker: jQueryUI Date Picker in the Write Tab.
fwiw – just tested it out. Neither article posted or expired dates are working. I set the preferences to yes under the extension tab and saved. Tried it with my current theme and with the classic theme.
Suggestions?
Thanks

I just installed it on a clean install of TXP 4.2.0 and it worked without a hitch on the classic theme. When you return to the extension tab to the settings you saved still show?
One thing I didn’t think about is if you give “Date Custom Field” a blank value it doesn’t work. If you don’t want any other datepicker fields you still need something in that field for it to work. I succesfully used “none” as the value and it still works.
I’ll have to fix that when I have a chance. version 0.3 fixes allows for a blank value in the Date Custom Field meaning no custom field datepicker.

Yes.
I had not tried setting up a custom date field – just the post/expire feature. I’ve installed v0.3 Still same out come. Perhaps it is my expectations. I’m envisioning going to the post/expire dates on the left hand side of the write page and being able to click on something and have the calendar pop up. However, I’m seeing the regular date fields, and clicking on them isn’t popping up anything.
I’m sure I’m being dense and missing the obvious.
Thanks for the help, Matt.

You should have a calendar icon next to the date field. Like so…
If it’s not showing up then something is wrong. Maybe the image just isn’t working? Try going to http://yourdomain.com/textpattern/?msd_dtpkr=datepickericon to see if the image works at least.

Left hand side? Are you using a plugin to re-order things?

Oops – I apologize for my brain freeze. I meant right hand side.

No icon. I’ll start turning off plugins and see what I can come up with.

I doubt any other plugins would cause a conflict.
Does the icon show when you go to that url?
You could do a “view source” on your write page and send me a copy. That or send me a login and I can take a look.

Sorry. Yes, and the icon shows.
I just used wet_plugout and then re-enabled date_picker as the only plugin. It now works.
So I will go through and try to find what was interfering. It may not be tonight, though.

Thanks – if I can’t track it down, I’ll do that.

Re: msd_admin_datepicker: jQueryUI Date Picker in the Write Tab.
Found it.
I had an old copy of glz_custom_fields on this install. (1.1.3). msd_admin_datepicker was not showing the icon w/ that version enabled. Upgrading to the latest version of glz_custom_fields fixed the issue.
My apologies for not trouble shooting that before posting.
Thanks for the help, Matt.

Glad you fuigured it out. Now I remember seeing that glz_cf caused issues with jquery stuff.

Re: msd_admin_datepicker: jQueryUI Date Picker in the Write Tab.
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.
