Adding Date Fields to Product Editing

Post by ryanstowasser » Fri Feb 06, 2009 3:33 pm

I need to make a product that sells tickets for an event. These events are repeated multiple times. What is the best way to add a date, or a date range to the product admin screens of ablecommerce?

The 2 ideas I have are add the date controls to the display options section of the of the product editting screen, but I am not sure where they would be saved to .

The Other idea is to use a field in the Product Template to set the dates, but there are no Date InputTypes. Has anyone needed to do something similar?

Any input is greatly appreciated.
