| Summary | 0005448: Blanking out a date field does not save a blank date | ||||
| Description | When blanking out an optional date / time field, it does not save. Instead, Composr maintains the previous value of the field. The expected behavior is that the date/time field would save as blank. | ||||
| Additional Information | Be cautious about this because we do not want to save blank dates/times if the post param was not actually specified; we need to ensure it was actually specified as blank and not just excluded as a parameter / field. | ||||

This needs discussion on implementation |

I attempted to fix this as a fix is needed for the validation time feature to fully work. However, I was unsuccessful. My attempted method was to alter the API for getting date components so that it returns null for a blank date and false for no date field being provided at all. Unfortunately, this created a mess of type errors and bugs. It also created a cascade effect as altering one API resulted in having to alter several more. |
