CB Content Bot - Field date

7 years 1 month ago #291827 by AchLive
CB Content Bot - Field date was created by AchLive
Hi, I noticed that the date type fields are not displayed in the Joomla articles with CB Content Bot, if they are not set as visible on profile. While other field types are viewable even if they are set as not visible on profile.
Possible that this is a bug?
Thanks for the support

This is the case for all fields if using a [cb:userfield field="FIELD_NAME" /] substitution. Both [FIELD_NAME] and [cb:userdata field="FIELD_NAME" /] do not perform access checks, but are not formatted (raw values from database).

Ok thanks, in fact using userdata works but the data is raw. Because it is a calendar date field can be formatted differently from the English date that I would not view it as Y-m-d, but d-m-Y
Thank you

Only way to output it as formatted is to use [cb:userfield field="FIELD_NAME" /]. If you don't want the field actually visible on profile, but accessible to substitutions you can move the field to a tab that's in a not shown on profile position.

This is the solution that I found myself. I thought you could use it in some way what is written here

Date - display preformated dates based off current date and time
[Cb: date format = "PHP_DATE () _ FORMAT" /]

[Cb: date format = "Y-m-d" /] will display 2011-02-14 for example. The time stamp used is always the current date and time.

But perhaps it is only applicable to the current date

Correct, that only outputs the current datetime in whatever PHP date format you like.
