Default date field value

Hi!

Why there is not a "default value" option for the date field? And I´m not refererring to the "value if empty", because it won´t work properly on things like the universal flexi content module date scope

Hello

almost all fields, have a default value, but for date field we did not add,

you think is needed ?
can you describe such a scenario ?

Yeah sure

My particular case: Was using date scope to limit a module to show articles between 2010-1-1 and 2999-1-1 based on a field created for that purpose

The problem was that articles without that value wouldn´t appear because they won´t comply with the condition

Hello

adding a default value is easy but,

-- a default value will not address the above, since a default value is never duplicated / stored in the DB


Instead the approach should be to update the relevant query:


-- so Question, which case do you talk about ?
about unversal module date scope ?
other ?



github.com/FLEXIcontent/flexico ... issues/148

Yeah, universal module with date scope

Hello

-- the updated Date scope in master branch of our GitHub repository, have an even more clear configuration

and

there is a new option to include items with NULL or EMPTY date value

Great!

Bonjour.
Suite à la mise à jour vers la version 3.0.4 (depuis la version 2.2.1-rc), la valeur par défaut d'un champ Date ne s'affiche plus.
Il faut que ce champ figure dans la base de données (table #_flexicontent_fields_item_relations) - avec une valeur d'au minimum 2 lettres (car ma valeur par défaut est un texte) - pour que la valeur par défaut s'affiche.
Comment puis-je remédier à ce problème ?

Pour contextualiser un peu. il s'agit d'une date de délai et le texte par défaut est "au plus tôt" et doit s'afficher lorsqu'à la saisie le champ Date est laissé vide.
Cela fonctionnait dans la précédente version, mais pas dans celle-ci.

Merci d'avance pour aide.
Cordialement.

Hello.
Following the update to version 3.0.4 (since 2.2.1-rc release), the default value of a date field is not displayed any more.
It is necessary that this field is in the database (table #_flexicontent_fields_item_relations) - with a value at least 2 letters (as my default is text) - for the default value is displayed.
How can I solve this problem?

To contextualize a bit : there is a period of time and the default text is "au plus tôt" and should appear when, entering the Date field is left blank.
This worked in the previous version, but not in this one.

Thank you in advance for help.
Regards.

Hello

any entered date
and the default date value,

is checked for being valid before display
it will not display if not valid,

-- can you repeat, what are the settings that you have configured into the field,
for the parameter-s that are related to the default date field ?

and how are you displaying the field and where, are you speaking of category / item view,
or trying to access raw value in a custom template ?

Hello!
Merci pour la réponse!

Show no value message -> Yes
No value message -> "au plus tôt"

L'affichage est une page unique avec tous les items sous formes de tableau et les items s'affichent dans une popup JCE.
Voici le lien : www.reiso.org/offresemploi/

Je ne sais pas ce que signifie "raw value in a custom template". J'ai seulement trouvé la mention "Show Labels Row" (->Use Global (Yes)) dans le CATEGORY Layout
Merci d'avance pour l'aide!
