Help with Date and Time Fields

  1. AustinGolfEvents.com/Add

    My issue is hopefully pretty simple.

    1. I want the Date(year) to be from 2013-2016 instead of 1920-2014

    2. I want the time fields to only allow actual times.....Right now I can enter in 39:82 PM and the form will accept it? How do I get it so the hours go to 12 and the minutes go to 60.

    Thanks in advance for your help...........sorry I'm a newb!

  2. Setting the minimum and maximum year can be accomplished by adding the following code to your functions.php file:

    add_filter("gform_date_max_year", "set_max_year");
    function set_max_year($max_year){
        return 2016;
    }
    add_filter("gform_date_min_year", "set_min_year");
    function set_min_year($min_year){
        return 2013;
    }

    Now limiting the hour and minute will require adding a little jQuery to you form's page template. Using the following code will cause any hour less than 1 to change to 1 and any number greater than 12 to turn into 12. Same goes for the minute. Any number less than 0 will turn to 0 and any number greater than 59 will turn to 59.

    <script type='text/javascript'>
    jQuery(document).ready(function( $ ) {
    $('#input_3_2_1').change(function() {
    if ($(this).val() < 1){ $(this).val(1);}
    if ($(this).val() > 12){ $(this).val(12);}
    });
    $('#input_3_2_2').change(function() {
    if ($(this).val() < 0){ $(this).val(0);}
    if ($(this).val() > 59){ $(this).val(59);}
    });
    });
    </script>

    You will just need to change 'input_3_2_1' to the ID of your hour form select and 'input_3_2_2' to the ID of your minute form select. You locate their IDs by viewing the page source of your form.

    I hope this answers your questions.
