Help with msv_if_custom_article_date

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone who has successfully implemented msv_if_custom_article_date could post an example – in page code, article form etc.

At this point, I’m not sure if it’s the way I’m using the plugin, or the plugin itself, but I can not get articles to appear when the date is equal to “today., greater etc. However less than “today” appears to be working properly.

I’d appreciate any help.

Thanks

Re: Help with msv_if_custom_article_date

You’ve three options:

1. Use if_expired, it’s the same functionality.
   If you absolutely need a custom field
2. use the attribute you get working and try see if the plugin yet supports the txp:else tag so you can always have the opposite effect of the rule you set up.
3. Modify the plugin like jakob described here for working with dates formatted like 2010.04.16. That way the greater/smaller logic becomes much more obvious and it’s a lot easier to set up the desired rule.

You can find working examples in jakobs tip and here, I used to use those with greaterequal.

If nothing works post your code here.
