Hi,

I am creating a news page and have a remove date field, I would like it to default to the current date plus say 8 weeks but have no idea as to what syntax is expected in the field editor.

From the research I have done the facility doesn't seem to be without problems. I am in the UK using UK time and date format. The facility isnt critical , I just want to try to make input of data as simple as possible by providing a pre calculated remove date.

If anyone can help by advising what I should be putting in the field editor to accomplish this ot would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any help provided.

Hi, willydoit.

In the Field Options default value, try entering the following for 'Specify custom date (or strtotime value)'

+8 week
