Setting the date range

[andythinkeq]

I've got a problem setting the date range after a post

I use this, but it fails and crashes javascript

duDatepicker('.fld-dates', {
range: true,
value: '30/04/2023 - 31/05/2023',
format: 'mmmm d, yyyy'
});

What am I doing wrong?

Hi @andythinkeq,

It is written here on how to set the value on date range mode. I notice your format config is mmmm d, yyyy, so you should set the value using that format too.

Thanks I'll give that a try

I'm still having problems, can anyone see what the issue may be?

OK, for clarity I've used dates where the dd and mm can't be confused as we don't have a 13th or 29th month

I chose this date range
13/10/2023 - 29/11/2023

Posted the form and the code I ran to set the dates put this in the visual field;
13/10/2023-29/11/2023
using the code below

jQuery(document).ready(function($){

duDatepicker('.fld-dates', {
    range: true,
    value: '13/10/2023-29/11/2023',
});

});

But the input element is set to

What am I doing wrong?

Hi @andythinkeq,

You should set the format to dd/mm/yyyy because the default format is mm/dd/yyyy. Like so:

duDatepicker('.fld-dates', {
    format: 'dd/mm/yyyy', range: true,
    value: '13/10/2023-29/11/2023',
});
