This module is a CCK formatter allowing users to pick one or more dates (from a date, datetime or datestamp CCK field) similar to the Doodle online service.

The main features of this module are:

  • The ability set date ranges (like 26/12/2009 17:00 - 19:00)
  • The results are stored using Voting API which allows:
    • to change the dates to be picked after the first answers from users
    • to see if a possible date has records for a user (for example, when the dates are updated)
    • to use a granular value for the vote (not only "yes" or "no")
    • some views integration
  • As the date picker widget is a CCK formatter, it should be easier to port to Drupal 7 or used within views.
  • Is build on a set of theming function for convenience/visual tuning

Version 2.x

The 2.x branch has almost all of of the 1.x code rewritten by thePanz. New features:

  • Full themable output (theme_ overrides and CSS theming)
  • New CSS selectors for votes and "winner" votes
  • Implementation of _nodeapi() and _fieldapi() hooks for votes clearing on node/filed deletion
  • Corrected VotingAPI usage (no more vote duplicates)
  • Preliminary multi-field implementation (votes are stored per-field instance)
  • Clean "CCK formatters" code (better and cleaner coding)
  • OpenAtrium compatible Feature

NOTE: no upgrading path from 1.x to 2.x is provided yet
