Compatibility with Contao 5.1

[Cleanerrr]

Hi,
is a Contao 5.1 version planned soon?
Thanks

@Cleanerrr Try to install the version dev-contao5 and check if everything works. Please report errors here. If everything is fine I can create the final version.

Hi Clif,
quick answers and action I have not received before. Thank you for that.
I installed the "dev-contao5" version and the installation went without any problems for me. I didn't get any error.
I also tested the use of the plugin by adding a date field in the form. And it works normally.
I think everything here is OK for the live version.
Thank you very much

[cliffparnitzky]

Thank you. Sounds good.

Hi,
was the final version released live, or...?

[cliffparnitzky]

No, not yet ...

Hi,
I wanted to ask if there will be a release for 5.3 soon or if there is anything to help with to have a release for 5.3 soon?
I just read the comments but as I read it should work with contao 5 already?

Is there any update on the new version for Contao 5.3?

[Webstylerin]

Are there any updates on a Contao 5.3 version? Can I use the “dev-contao5” version? Are there any known issues with Contao 5.3? I am about to update a website that uses the extension and would love to hear some news.

The Contao update for the site is nearly complete. Initially, I considered using input type="date" instead of the Calendarfield extension, but it led to new issues. So, I installed the “dev-contao5” version, and it’s mostly working fine.

However, when I select a custom icon for the form field, I encounter this error:

Attempted to call an undefined method named "addImageToTemplate" of class "Hofff\Contao\Calendarfield\FormCalendarField".

As a workaround, I modified the default icon directly in the form_calendarfield.html5 template.

In the backend, there’s also a minor display issue: <sup class="desc_icon">🛈</sup> no longer seems to exist. I’ve attached a screenshot for reference.

I have installed and tested the ‘dev-contao5’ with Contao 5.3.19 (PHP 8.3). All functions work exactly as they did before.

I can also confirm that an error message appears in the frontend when selecting a custom icon. The log-file contains the following:

request.CRITICAL: Uncaught PHP Exception Error: "Call to undefined method Hofff\Contao\Calendarfield\FormCalendarField::addImageToTemplate()" at FormCalendarField.php line 121 {"exception":"[object] (Error(code: 0): Call to undefined method Hofff\\Contao\\Calendarfield\\FormCalendarField::addImageToTemplate() at /var/www/vhosts/testdomain.de/httpdocs/test/vendor/hofff/contao-calendarfield/src/Resources/contao/forms/FormCalendarField.php:121)"} {"request_uri":"https://www.testdomain.de/startseite","request_method":"GET"}

I think if this is still adapted, the module for Contao can be released for this Contao version. It would also be great if this were possible soon, as Contao 4.13 is coming to an end and 5.3 is already an established version.

When I try to install the dev-contao5 package via package upload, I get the error "Die composer.json Schema-Validierung ist fehlgeschlagen. Error validating /version: The property version is required".
How can I fix this, or (better): when will a stable Version for Contao 5.3 be available?

To install the dev-contao5 package, I entered the following line in the composer.json and then executed the installation with the Contao Manager:
"hofff/contao-calendarfield": "dev-contao5"
(Pay attention to correct comma placement in the composer.json)
