Xibo

Date is broken

Asked by markuhde

The date substitution in the clock doesn't work for me, either [DD/MM/YYYY] as suggested or [YYYY-MM-DD]. Both appear fine in the preview, but don't actually render in the client. This is with 1.7 RC1.

Do you not get anything at all in the client?

The CMS does the parsing and sends a substituted HTML file down to the client for display. You can find this file in the library (.htm extension) and see what made it down to the client - you can even open the file in IE directly and see if IE renders it.

Nothing at all in the client, it is just a blank space. Looks fine in the preview in Chrome. I'll check it out at work tonight.

This is the clock section of the layout from the library, it renders perfectly fine in Internet Explorer:
