Hi,
I would like users to be able to select multiple dates in CCK (both simple dates and ranges of dates with "from" and "to"), but my current solution is to use a "Date" field with unlimited values. But it is not user-friendly at all!
I would like to know if it would be possible to "tick" dates (and maybe use a drag selection) in a little calendar, instead of having to type the dates...
Thank you
Max

Please! up!
I've found Availability Calendars module, but
(1) you still have to select each and every day separately
(2) it's impossible to make a research with those availability criteria, since it's not a CCK field

We're also willing to start developing exactly this feature but we need some help from the moderators / authors of Date module.

UI-wise something like this, I guess...

Hi,

I think this feature is also something I'm after, but I'd like to confirm by explaining my problem first!

I'm making a site with a timetable of yoga events on it, we have classes 3 times a day.

Currently I have 3 different events, for the different times, with an end date of a year later ..

What I'd like to do is create 1 event, using 1 date field that can handle multiple date ranges, e.g.

'every day at 9am'
AND 'every day at '1pm'
And 'every friday at 6pm'

which has no end date, it just goes on forever and ever and ever ..

I think my feature request is inline with what mysteriousfea has requested, so I've mentioned it here rather than open up another ticket?

Similar functionality requested here: http://drupal.org/node/1437220. Since this is so old, I'm marking this as a duplicate.

#1437220: Unable to select multiple byday,bymonth,etc. rrule part values in repeating dates looks a bit different - this is to do with having multiple repeat rules on a single date field.

Issue summary: View changes

gpk is right, that issue is a completely different issue than this one. This one is about a user-friendly multiple date selection mechanism, the other issue is about Date Repeat fields. However, since this is still an issue in 7.x, I've raised the version.

There is a module that does this. I've tested this and it works well.
https://www.drupal.org/project/date_multiselect

You only cannot select a range from x to y without selecting every date in between.
