Component body
This module is a CCK formatter allowing users to pick one or more dates (from a date, datetime or datestamp CCK field) similar to the Doodle online service.
The main features of this module are:
- The ability set date ranges (like 26/12/2009 17:00 - 19:00)
- The results are stored using Voting API which allows:
- to change the dates to be picked after the first answers from users
- to see if a possible date has records for a user (for example, when the dates are updated)
- to use a granular value for the vote (not only "yes" or "no")
- some views integration
- As the date picker widget is a CCK formatter, it should be easier to port to Drupal 7 or used within views.
- Is build on a set of theming function for convenience/visual tuning
Version 2.x
The 2.x branch has almost all of of the 1.x code rewritten by thePanz. New features:
- Full themable output (theme_ overrides and CSS theming)
- New CSS selectors for votes and "winner" votes
- Implementation of _nodeapi() and _fieldapi() hooks for votes clearing on node/filed deletion
- Corrected VotingAPI usage (no more vote duplicates)
- Preliminary multi-field implementation (votes are stored per-field instance)
- Clean "CCK formatters" code (better and cleaner coding)
- OpenAtrium compatible Feature
NOTE: no upgrading path from 1.x to 2.x is provided yet
