Release notes

======================
Version 7.x-2.0-rc1
======================

Notes:
The Date Browser has been removed. Please use the Date Pager instead. If you have existing views using the Date
Browser the navigation will just disappear from them. If you add a Date Pager to the view you should get it back.
Then delete the Date Browser attachment from the view, since it doesn't do anything any more.

The UNTIL date was not getting included in repeating results and that is now fixed. This is an API change of sorts
for anyone who worked around the issue by setting it ahead.

The All Day checkbox and All Day themes were moved into a separate module, using new hooks added to the date
processing. This module should serve as an example of how other modules can inject functionality into date fields.

A new module has been added for integrating the Date Repeat API into date fields. Some of this code has been
moved into the new module, more of it will be moved later as I figure out how to unwind it from the base
processing. An update hook has been added to enable this module by default for existing sites. If you don't
use Repeating dates you can disable it.

There is a new file, api.date.php, that describes the new hooks that make it easier for other modules to intervene in Date processing.

New Features/Major Changes

Release notes

======================
Version 7.x-2.0-alpha4
======================

Notes to themers:

Previous versions put dates with both From and To dates into a fieldset and other dates were not.
The new code adds additional floating elements that are hard to contain, so now all dates are
enclosed in fieldsets in the node form. There are also new elements on the form, an optional
checkbox for hiding/showing the To date and an optional checkbox for hiding/showing time.
Previously dates on the node form had 'From date' and 'To date' labels above them, this
has been changed to remove those labels, using the Google calendar date entry screen
as a model. This simplifies the node form and dates take up less space. A light grey border
has been added around each collection of dates (the From date and the To date). The display
of labels above the date parts (year, month, day, date, time, etc) is controlled in the
field settings. Previous versions did not always honor those settings, this one does.

New Features/UX Improvements

- Issue #1249724 by KarenS, Gábor Hojtsy, David_Rothstein, Improve usability of date and time input configuration.
- Issue #1250784 by David_Rothstein, Add user-friendly labels for start and end date values in Views.
- Issue #742146, Add option to remove X-WR-CALNAME if VEVENT is not a feed.

Release notes

======================
Version 7.x-2.0-alpha2

- Issue #1059078 Add preliminary support for SQLite dates.
- Issue #1103290 by kevintheday, Use db_driver() to determine database engine.

- Looks like Views changed ['expose']['operator'] to ['expose']['operator_id'].
- Issue #1115770, Make sure filters values are switched back to ISO format so time comparisons work correctly.

Release notes

This branch will totally re-work and simplify the Views filters. These changes may/will break some views and will require that you check views that use the date filter or argument to be sure they are still configured correctly.

There is a new date_filter_handler_simple for an individual date field that simplifies the Views handling by using most of the core Views field handling but adds in the possibility to set a default date using options like 'now', along with a choice of a month/day/year drop-down selector or popup calendar selector.

The date_filter_handler is an extension of the simple handler that allows you to combine multiple dates into a single filter so that you can control all of them with the same filter widget, allowing you to either 'OR' or 'AND' them together.

The arguments will be rewritten in the same way, with a simple argument handler for individual dates and another handler that extends that to control multiple dates with a single argument.

The Calendar module will need an update when this is finished to use the new handlers correctly.

This code is NOT yet ready to use.

Release notes

Initial release, probably still buggy.
