Date Popup Authored

Build Status

Introduction

Date Popup Authored provides a jQuery UI datepicker for the "Authored on" date field found on node submission forms.

For a full description of the module, visit the project page on Drupal.org. To submit bug reports and feature suggestions, or to track changes, please visit the issue queue.

Requirements

  • Drupal 7
  • Date 2.0 or later
  • Date Popup, part of the Date module

Installation and configuration

Install as usual. See the handbook page on installing contributed modules for further information.

You can change the behavior of the date-picker by going to the settings page for each content type.

Caveats

Since Date Popup Authored allows you to choose a date format that's less specific than the default date format Drupal uses for the Authored on field, it will insert default data if you use a more simplified date format.

For example, if the date format you've configured doesn't include a time, when the node is saved, the Authored on time will be set to 12:00AM. Similarly, if you don't include the ability to choose a month, the Authored on month will be set to January (i.e. month 1).

So, if you care about the time a post is authored, make sure you allow the user to set it in the date format. See installation for more information.

Future development

The functionality this module provides is being considered for core inclusion:

Because of this, there will hopefully be no Drupal 8 version.

The current maintainer is Mark Trapp (Drupal.org profile).

Acknowledgments

Date Popup Authored was inspired by the hacks provided by brice and Rob Loach in the Date module issue, "Use Date Popup on 'Authored on' field." It contains additional fixes to account for problems found in their solution, new configuration options, Drupal 7 support, and a full test suite.
