Date plugin date picker popup error in J5

[sakyildiz]

Date plugin's date picker popup does not display correctly in J5. Browser's console says it is related with tinymce.min.js

I can confirm the display issue, but I can't confirm this is depending on tinymce.min.js (took me some time to clone my development site and do the upgrade to J5).
Nonetheless this could be solved with some (custom) css-statements. I'll come back, when I have discovered in detail, what is needed.

Just found out: obviously the J5 upgrade deleted some files in the media/system/css folder where calendar-jos.min.css was located. I copied the file to the mentioned folder and it works.
Probably some other problems will occur :-(

It solves the problem. Thank you. Happy new year by the way.

The old date element is deprecated, the calendar JS/CSS is not longer supported by J!.

It's kept only because of its "Advanced dates" possibilities and because there are still some glitches with jdate and Advanced Search.
So if possible you should use/ switch to jdate element.

That's why I use the old date-element. Probablythe new date element will never get this possibilities !?

At that point in time I didn't even think about J5, so missed the existance of the solution

Hey,

I have a fresh J5.0.2 installation and Fabrik 4. Unfortunately the Date picker doesn't work at all. I see the icon but it doesn't Pop up when I click on it.

Thx for any help

Fabrik 4.0?
Backend? Frontend?
Form? List filter?

 

[ossi]

Hi,

yes, Fabrik 4.0 (01.02.2024)
Frontend and Backend
Form and List. Default Filter setup.

Can you see any JS error messages in your browser console?

 

[ossi]

Hey, indeed the browser console shows the following:

Fabrik form::addElements: Cannot add element "ajs_user_profile___passport_expiry_date" of type "FbDateTime" because: Calendar is not a constructor

 

[ossi]

can you propose a fix?

 

[troester]

I can't replicate. With F4.0 the old date element is working everywhere on my J!5.0.2 site.

I should have read the important bits and pieces while setting up the date field. I still had a jdate element active and this caused the date picker not to work.

thanks for all your time wasted to help a stupid beginner
