How to add a new Input Field Type?

I just want to add an idea to work also (hopefully) when editing draft and post preview (or when inline post error triggered):

Code:

<if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'editpost.php' && !$mybb->input['my_post_key']) || (THIS_SCRIPT == 'newthread.php' && $mybb->input['action'] == 'editdraft') then><?=date('m/d/Y',{VALUE})?><else>{VALUE}</if>

Also (if not saving it as string), maybe it is better (in my opinion) to set the Underlying Data Type to Integer.

I use pikaday though.

Hi RateU, I tried the code but doesn't work

For now I'm using this:

Code:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

<if THIS_SCRIPT == 'editpost.php' && !$GLOBALS['threadfields']['datexp'] then> <input type="text" class="textbox"{NAME_PROP}{MAXLE​​N_PROP}{WIDTH_PROP_SIZE}{TABINDE​X​_PROP}{REQUIRED_PROP} value="<?=date('Y/m/d', (int){VALUE})?>" id="datepicker" placeholder="editpost" /> <else> <input type="text" class="textbox"{NAME_PROP}{MAXLE​​N_PROP}{WIDTH_PROP_SIZE}{TABINDE​X​_PROP}{REQUIRED_PROP} value="{VALUE}" id="datepicker" placeholder="newthread" /> </if>

With this the problem still is if user doesn't add a date in the field and I edit (and then save) the thread I have "1970/01/01" date instead of an empty field.

For the rest is ok: if I create a new thread I haven't problem; if I edit a thread with an existent date I have correct date (and not a string like before).

Date in preview post doesn't work
