The 2026 Drupal Business Survey is open. Your response will help shape the future of the Drupal business ecosystem.When people want to post an event and they forget to also alter the end date's date (and not just the end time) they get the folowing error. Probably because the end date is before the begin date.
It would be really great if the end date would automatically change to the begin date in these cases or otherwise show a clear error like "the end date is earlier than the begin date."

karens commentedI am unable to replicate this error. There is validation already that checks if the end date is greater than the start date. And there is javascript to adjust the end date automatically in select lists until they touch the end date (after that it's not safe to keep changing it).
Make sure you're testing on the latest dev releases of everything. If you still see a problem there I need to know how to reproduce this on a fresh install -- what kind of field, what settings, what values, what is being entered into the field, etc.

peteruithoven commentedNice, after an update I get the following, very clear warning:
Great work (not sarcastic).

arlinsandbulte commentedGood, I think...
When I first read #2, I thought you were being sarcastic, complaining the update resulted in a new error.
But after reading the OP a few times, I think I got the wrong impression, and that the warning is actually what you wanted.
