Problem/Motivation

It is not obvious for the end user to use filters instead of fields as the date field in Calendar View settings.

It was a technical choice at the beginning because of the lot of unknown possibilities when building a calendar with Views.

Now it seems better to use fields instead of filters.

It feels more familiar to the end user and it leave filters alone, doing their job filtering results without messing with the building of the Calendar.

Proposed resolution

  • Replace date filters settings by date fields

Remaining tasks

  1. Rework code
  2. Test all known date fields: created, changed, daterange, datetime and smartdate
  3. (edit: too much work for now. there won't be update path)
