Event Helper takes the pain out of managing events channels by letting you use custom start and end date fields, automatically setting expiration dates, and more.

For each of your chosen “events” channels, Event Helper can:

Set the Expiration Date of your entry to 23:59 on the last day of your event
Clone your chosen custom Start Date field the entry date
Set your Start Date, End Date, and Entry Date times to midnight

Event Helper also includes it’s own date fieldtype, which provides a standard datepicker, but with the time portion of the date removed. You can choose any Date, Event Helper Date, or DropDate field as your Start Date and End Date fields for each “events” channel.

Event Helper will also remove the localization menu from any chosen native Date fields and automatically set its value to “Fixed”.

Event Helper has been tested on ExpressionEngine 2.2+, and is compatible with SafeCracker and MSM setups.

NOTE: The EE1 version of Event Helper is no longer being updated, and does not include the Event Helper Date field type, nor does it have the option to not set the Expiration Date in your event channel entries.
