I’m building my first stand-alone edit form.
I’m using the Solspace form helper and the SAEF calendar plugin. And I have TinyMCE WYSIWYG fields, which after much grief finally have working (except for the LG Tiny MCE Image field).
When I embed the exp:weblog:entry_form tag inside the exp:weblog:entries and try to format the comment expiration date using the following code {comment_expiration_date format='%Y-%m-%d %g:%i %A'} it presents the code rather than the data.
What might be causing this?
The form code is as shown below. There are also javascript and css files linked in the header to make TinyMCE and the calendars work.
{exp:weblog:entry_form weblog="forum" return="forum/list" preview="forum/publish"
show_fields="not forum_body|forum_excerpt|forum_image|forum_image_caption"}
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="forum" limit="1"
disable="category_fields|member_data|pagination|trackbacks"}
<input type="hidden" name="entry_id" value="{entry_id}" />
