Some testing still needed in different environments and use cases. Please help us in testing and report your experiences in this issue.

When to promote as a full project

  • When module installation process works
  • When setting up a new view works
  • When using basic fields works (as advertised on project page)

@Pol: Thanks for testing!

Can you check if you could use Node post date instead of the date field? I haven't tested using date fields, even they would be configured as timestamps. Also make sure you have the Timeline JS library installed in sites/all/libraries/timeline.

I added README.txt and added a few tweaks some minutes ago, so you should pull the latest code and then test.

Yup I see the commits and updated the git directory already.

The library is installed and I have new errors now. It seems that the Ajax call is not done.

See it by yourself on my site.

I also tried with the Post Date, it's the same results.

@Pol: This seems to be related to JS/CSS aggregating. TimelineJS libraries are trying to load it's files from incorrect paths. I'm trying to solve this...

Timeline should now work with JS/CSS aggregation on.

Indeed it works! Cool!

It doesn't works for the Date field of the node, it only works for the default dates fields like 'Post Date' etc.

I've been testing this locally on MAMP and LAMP. Also online @ www.ernokoliseva.net and it works fine. Awesome this far, but date field of the node should atleast be enabled as an option.

After more tests it seems that there is something wrong with permissions. There is no permission rules on ernokoliseva.net but anonymous users can't see the timeline block.

I've been testing this in a local playground, with the most recent versions of both core and required contributed modules. It works, but i had a couple things to figure out to get it work. These were:
- there is no clear documentation about where to put TimelineJS itself inside libraries. it seems it only works within a directory 'timeline'.
- when i set any field 'none' in the views plugin settings 'field mappings', php notices are thrown and no view result is rendered at all. if i set something for all the mapping options, timeline works fine.
- it seems when i visit the timeline styled page, the starting position is the current date. it would be useful to have some sort of setting for this, with options: first entry, last entry, now, custom.

keep up the good job, thank you!
