This module adds start and end datetime scheduling to crowdfunding challenges.
Pledges are accepted only while the challenge is in the Open state and within the configured schedule. The challenge page displays countdown timers and status messages before the challenge starts, while it is active, and after it ends.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0Lets you set a start and end date/time on a crowdfunding challenge so pledges are only accepted during that window, with countdown timers and status messages shown on the public challenge page.
This module adds scheduling to crowdfunding challenges. On the challenge form, two new fields appear next to the pledged amount: a start date and time and an end date and time.
- Odoo refuses to save a challenge where the start date is later than the end date, showing the message "Start date cannot be after end date."
- Pledges are only accepted while the challenge is open and the current time falls inside the configured window. If the window has not started yet, or has already passed, the payment page shows a warning instead of the payment form, telling visitors the challenge has not started yet or has already expired.
On the public challenge page, visitors see: - A countdown timer to the start date before the challenge begins, plus a message that the challenge is not yet active. - A countdown timer to the end date while the challenge is running. - A message that the challenge has ended once the end date is reached.
The module extends the existing crowdfunding.challenge model and its payment controller, and adds fields to the challenge form view. No new menus are added.
