When I pull up an existing event the start and end time boxes are both empty. I know this is not normal behavior because I have a second installation hosted by a 3rd party and when I pull up an existing event for it the date / times are set correctly in their respective fields.
What file of mine could be messed up that could be causing this? I have tweaked some things with the installation slighly, mostly design related though.
1.8 has two linked fields, the date value is set in a hidden field and then populated into the picker via JavaScript in your local format (date format setting).
That sounds like what may be happening but I believe I am running release 1.7
Where is this script executed from? I am receiving no errors in the javascript console.
1.7 should fill in both fields (hidden and visible) before serving the content to the browser - can you confirm your date format is the standard one Y-m-d H:i ?
The html for the form is served via XHR - so you should see this in developer tools network tab. The response is json formatted and has a html property - the dates should be formatted in there already.
The javascript is in xibo-calendar.js and only initialises the date pickers based on the dates that are already there.
Ok so after much debugging and checking of this I still cannot figure out how my system is different from the working one. I have a server that I am hosting and one that Xibo is hosting, they should be nearly identical but this is the only issue that I am having. Sadly none of my developer tools are throwing a javascript error. I check out any differences in the files you sent me and my own files and there were none.
