Wrong date in calendar operations new entry

[miquelangeld]

Creating a new entry using Calendar Operations the date in the form is always today's date, not the one selected in the calendar.

I removed the default value in my Create Operation but same result

CRUD::addField([   // date_range
            'name' => 'start,end', // db columns for start_date & end_date
            'label' => 'Fechas de reserva',
            'type' => 'date_range',
            //'default' => [Carbon::now()->startOfDay(), Carbon::now()->endOfDay()],
            'date_range_options' => [
                'drops' => 'down', // can be one of [down/up/auto]
                'timePicker' => true,
                'locale' => ['format' => 'DD/MM/YYYY HH:mm'],
            ],
        ]);

I expected that the date on the form is the same as the day from which I created the entry.

Hey @pxpm

I just tested the date_range, which works fine for me. Can you suggest something here?

[miquelangeld]

Hi @karandatwani92 if you select for example day 13th in calendar and try to create an entry from there in the form the date selector use the 13th? or 11th

[karandatwani92]

Yes I choose different dates & time

[miquelangeld]

I think maybe I didn't make myself clear, I mean if in the form the date that appears by default is the same as the day in the calendar.

If I try to create a new entry from calendar

I expect the default date in the select to be the same as in the calendar cell from I create the entry.

But the default is always "today" and not 20/03/2024 But maybe I expect behavior that is not as designed. It's not a big deal, but I think the date start should be 20/03/2024 in the form.

Now I get it. You are right... I'll test the user experience with calendar operation and report a list of missing features to improve the experience. This would give our patch team clarity on pushing the fixes.

I'll include this one for sure. Thanks for reporting @miquelangeld

Hey @miquelangeld

I just noticed this feature was always there. Use the following to get the selected date & time:

CRUD::field('start')->value(request()->start);
CRUD::field('end')->value(request()->end);

I also found a bug with the start value on the month view, which I have already reported. I'll update the status on this thread once it's solved.

Feel free to reopen the issue if it still needs to be solved!
