Does the Blog module work with SS 2.4 beta?

Probably faster to try it out for yourself! You'll probably want to use the latest daily build / trunk for 2.4 compatibility

It works!

Blog hasn't worked for me for a little while now in 2.4. Keep getting:

PHP Fatal error: Class 'DatetimeField' not found in /Users/morvenlewis-everley/Documents/NetbeansProjects/Silverstripe/cello_main/blog/code/BlogEntry.php on line 80, referer: http://localhost:8081/cello_main/admin/cms/

I am using the trunk version of blog. I know DatetimeField has been depreciated in 2.4, but I wasn't aware it had been in the Beta 1 release?

I am checking Silverstripe out of /tags/beta/2.4.0-beta1/, is this the best place to check 2.4 out of?

Cheers,

Hello!

baba-papa posted this after I tried the frontend part of the blog module where I was able to create a fresh blog post without any problems or obstacles. In the backend I still get the same fatal php error as you do.

Mo - upgrade to the latest 2.4 build. The date time functionality has been refactored in 2.4 but if you are using the beta it won't be included. Blog trunk has been updated to fit that new post 2.4 beta API - http://open.silverstripe.org/changeset/99407/modules/blog/trunk

I have my svn client (running Cornerstone on MacOs) pointing to the following two repositories and have not had an issue with the Blog in a while.

For SS 2.4: http://svn.silverstripe.com/open/phpinstaller/branches/2.4
For Blog: http://svn.silverstripe.com/open/modules/blog/trunk

Works a charm...I just now have to figure out how BlogTrees work in relation to Holders and Entries....

I switched back to branches/2.4 and now everything seems to be working,

Cheers,

Mo
