Some time ago there was a discussion on this forum about the inadequacies of EE2’s standard calendar widget for selecting dates.

Can anyone say whether Solspace’s new Calendar is compatible with SafeCracker? It has its own widget and is apparently compatible with EE’s standard SAEF.

Hi Clifford, I haven’t used the new Calendar, so I can’t tell you absolutely for sure whether it will work. I can tell you this, though, Solspace recently updated their Tag module to work with EE2 SAEFs, and we can confirm that Tag works properly in SafeCracker. So, I’m assuming Calendar works, too. If it doesn’t, knowing that Calendar is a popular addon, we’d work with Solspace to make sure it worked. You can be our guinea pig if you want

Can anyone else report that they’ve SafeCracker+Calendar together successfully?

Thanks Rob

I also posted this on Solspace forum and got this reply:

Thatâ??s a good question. I really donâ??t think it will work because some of Calendarâ??s stuff requires processing thatâ??s done by the Calendar:Form tag.

You *could* try to fiddle and play with it and see if you can frankenstien it, but I donâ??t think it will work

Gotcha, I didn’t realize they use their own custom tag {exp:calendar:form} instead of just working with a regular SAEF. So I’m afraid for now at least it’s not going to work.
