Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1196455

(Calendar :: Provider: GData, defect)

Description

[luciano]

Attachment: Custom reminder showing error message and OK button disabled (Spanish)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:37.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/37.0
Build ID: 20150415140819

Steps to reproduce:

1. Created an event on 2015-05-11 (5 days in the future)
2. Clicked on Reminder > Custom > Add
3. In details, tried to switch to a specific date (current date is shown by default)
[Error message is displayed, see below]
3.b Switched Reminder date to 2015-05-08 (2 days in the future, still 3 days before the event)
[Error message is displayed, see below]
3.c Switched Reminder date to 2015-05-12 (AFTER the event)
[Error message disappears]


Actual results:

Error message "Google Calendar only allows reminders up to 4 weeks before the event starts" is displayed when a custom reminder is set to a specific date if the reinder date is before the event start. "OK" button is inactive.

Situation is reversed (no message, OK button is active) if the reminder is set to a date AFTER the event start.

Please see screenshot, interface is in Spanish.


Expected results:

Reminder date should be valid if it is between current date and event start date.
