Make it easier to backdate entries

mtlynch opened this issue · 2 comments

A common scenario is that a user wants to enter their update for week N, but they enter it on Saturday, so What Got Done treats it as the update for week N + 1.

If the user is submitting an update but doesn't have an entry for the previous week, we should make it easier for them to indicate that their update is meant for week N rather than N + 1.

I also find that I forget to add an entry. But I can just edit the URL to the previous Friday. As a possible fix, what about changing the date to a dropdown?

Or maybe have the dropdown be the current+2 past Fridays and one Friday in the future? Let me know what the UI should be and I think I can work up a patch.

@rlorenzo - Sure, that would be great!

Current + 2 past sounds good to me.

Friday in the future I think won't work because the server will reject it.
