Current date and time as the default value 13 Jun 2016 10:25 #14039

Hi,
I am looking for this answer too. In other words...

How can we set the default date to be NOW() in the JCook interface?

(I can do it via Fork code - but is there a way in the JCooK GUI Table > Date > Properties ? )

Thanks
Just call me Chris :)

In the field's properties, you can enter a default date value.
I should put a calendar. At the moment you need to enter in the SQL format.

If you want the current time, just instance the Creation Date Wizard, and link it to your field.
Coding is now a piece of cake

For starters it's just so easy to design an app in a way that I'm used to i.e. database first then views followed by customization. The fork system is pure brilliance from a developer standpoint as I can override things and still add and update my projects with minimal effort! Truly amazing to be able to build components in Joomla using incremental refinement without having to do everything by hand. Thanks for the great tool! I am so much more productive now than ever and I can't imagine building components any other way!!!!
