UI to edit Publication Date on the Node Edit Screen

Thanks math0ne !!

I tried to run this patch and got this error.

patching file publication_date.module
patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line
patch: **** malformed patch at line 47:  

Would it be possible to port this pacth to the D7 version? :)

better formed patch attached

Hi,
I modified the patch above for a D7 db_query().

enjoy

Rerolled the patch in #5 minus the dsm()

Changing the issue version to 7.x (so that maybe the bot will succeed).

Oh, I totally got the node ID wrong on my patch file name, soz about that.

I see

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in publication_date_form_alter() (line 124 of modules/contrib/publication_date/publication_date.module).

Removed dsm from sime and form warning when adding a node (no $node->published_at) was present

Sorry @dgtlmoon, i thought i got rid of that!

@sime: its ok, but im scared that you're using die(), you use a breakpoint debugger right? :)

Will it be merged into the main release?

@cesareaugusto yeah, can you test that patch for us?

Sure I can! Though I don't know how to apply patches. Could it be merged into the downloadable dev release?

youll have to learn how to apply the patch, sorry

Another patch, $node->published_at is always set, and thus it can be (bool)false, only set the #default_value if it is not false

The patch in #18 is useful, but it throws this error when creating a new node:
Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in publication_date_form_alter() (line 126 of /path-to-site/sites/all/modules/publication_date/publication_date.module).

I think the problem that I reported in #19 is due to the fact that the $node object does not exist.

I fixed line 126 by changing it from:
if ($node->published_at) {
to
if ($node && $node->published_at) {

Sorry I don't have patch for you.

I had a look at the patch and it didn't work with new nodes (only updates). I modified it a bit and recreated it to use the node form rather than hitting every form.

I'm an idiot. This one should work.

hmm nope, above patch still causes an error when the field is left blank

I'm not getting an error. What error is it giving?

Try this patch, it add's significant testing and a slight refactor of the save process

woops

No errors here :)

FYI the patch in #4 worked for me (D6). Thanks!

#29 works in OpenPublish.

Patch in #29 works for me on latest D7 :)

Great, committed to 7.x-1.x, thanks for the reviews!

Thanks Leigh. Keep up the good work! :)

ha, hey Andreas :)
