I'm not sure if this is an issue for Flexifield or Date, so I've posted it on both :)

Thanks,

Hi Adam, might be worth updating modules or looking at your theme for issues. I have flexifield that adds multiple date fields (+ two other fields) in the form and it is working fine. I am not sure about displaying on the node view as I use code in the template to get the values and display them myself (give what Flexifield tries to do I would be surprised if things just display fine without you intervening in the tpl files)

Version:6.x-1.0-alpha1» 6.x-1.0-alpha4

I'm having the same exact problem, and I'm using Garland with no customization. I'm using alpha 4 and have tried multiple options on the date field (required/not required, default value/no default, different date formats, etc.) Any thoughts?

As KarenS indicates in her comment on #373114: Conflict/problem with Flexifield Module, the date module does some pretty complex stuff, making some assumptions about the context that it's in, and some of those assumptions don't take into account flexifield. Since flexifield is the newer and lower usage module, it's my responsibility to get the two modules to work together rather than hers. She was correct that at the time she wrote that comment, filefield and imagefield were also not working with flexifield, but that has since been fixed.

I'm planning on releasing alpha5 this week, which will be the first version to have views integration: #300668: Add views integration

My next task after that is date module integration.

Thanks effulgentsia,

Really appreciate the work on this module as for large complex forms it solves a number of restrictions of the standard CCK functionality. We used it recently on a grant application process with the "Draft" module, and while there was some custom code needed to glue the two together, the system was very successful.

I will continue to monitor this but just wanted to thank you for the hard work!

Best,

Adam
