Drupal 6.4, date/views tinkering


By Dark Siren Sally - Posted on 09 September 2008 in Daily Post, Hiatus, Website

I was going to wait till I reorganized tags to update to 6.4, but I'm still stuck, so... decided to do it anyway, since it's a security update.

Also, I updated some of my modules, namely CCK (Content Construction Kit, for custom form field types), Date (a CCK add-on that specifically works with dates) and Token (which is used mostly for 'pathauto' which auto-creates URL aliases).

Changing Date took a few hours of work because it seems the way the module handles dates is being altered. Now dates can have a range, without having to create two separate date objects to do it. I didn't want to have to hand-edit all of my existing Event data (which I use for the announcement block) so I just deleted the entirety of them. :O I don't really have any new announcements to put up yet, so I just made some test ones and messed around till I got it right.

Well, that done, I'm still feeling particularly non-social... not having a good day. :( Maybe I'll pop by tomorrow. But I won't guarantee it. Definitely by Thursday though.
