Hello Event Espresso Team,

I have a few questions regarding the date picker customization:

Date Format: How can I change the format of the date picker to display in a specific format (e.g., DD-MM-YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY)?
Min & Max Date Range: How do I set a minimum and maximum date range for the date picker to restrict users from selecting dates outside a certain range?
Change Month & Year Dropdown: How can I enable dropdowns for changing the month and year in the date picker instead of navigating via arrows?
Year Input Issue: The year field currently allows entering six characters instead of four. How can I restrict it to only four digits?
Looking forward to your guidance.

Hi there,

Apologies for the delayed reply.

I checked into this to confirm, and we don’t have options for any of the above within Event Espresso. Some of what you are trying to do you could do with some custom JS specific to your use case but I don’t have any examples of doing so.

Date Format: How can I change the format of the date picker to display in a specific format (e.g., DD-MM-YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY)?

This is something we explicitly don’t currently support at this time, the date format intentionally does not use any other format.

Min & Max Date Range: How do I set a minimum and maximum date range for the date picker to restrict users from selecting dates outside a certain range?

This could be done with custom JS.

Change Month & Year Dropdown: How can I enable dropdowns for changing the month and year in the date picker instead of navigating via arrows?

If you click on the month name it will display all months and the year, you can click on a specific month to select it (same with year). We don’t have an option to change this.

Year Input Issue: The year field currently allows entering six characters instead of four. How can I restrict it to only four digits?

This I can reproduce and will create a ticket for, however, we try to be as transparent as we can with developments and I don’t think it would be considered a high priority issue currently.
