What's wrong ? 70's

Thursday 21 April 2005 1:19:45 am

Hi,

I added a empty datefield to the article class to allowed users to change the publication date.
In article.tpl I wrote this :

{section show=$node.object.data_map.date_de_publication.content.is_empty|not()}
{$node.object.data_map.date_de_publication.data_int|datetime(custom,"%F %Y")}
{section-else}
{$node.object.published|datetime(custom,"%F %Y")}
{/section}

So if users leave it blank we use the publication's date.

but this :

{$node.object.published|datetime(custom,"%F %Y")}

nested in {section-else} print January 1970.

When this part of the code is out of the section block I have the good date.

Any hint ?

Hi Lukasz,

january 1970 :(
It seems to be simple but I have no idea about that.

Let's try to locate the error first.

What is printed when you only do {$node.object.published} in the section-else?

If it doesn't print 0, the error is in the datetime operator. But my wild guess is that it will print 0.

Solved

I removed the attribute "date_de_pubication" and create a new one (empty by default) and it's ok.

I think the mistake (bug ?) was that when I created it first I made it with "today's date" by default and then changed to leave it empty.
The first choice seems to take advantage on the second.

Here's the code if it can help someone :

{section show=$node.object.data_map.date_de_publication.has_content}
{$node.object.data_map.date_de_publication.data_int|datetime(custom,"%F %Y")}
{section-else}
{$node.object.published|datetime('custom',"%F %Y")}
{/section}
