Working on a project in SP13 where calendar events are being set to all day events by default and all fields bar start date and title are hidden.
Issue is using the datepicker to select a start date in the future does not update the end date text field value, meaning it errors out when saving as end date cannot be earlier than start date. End date needs to be hidden so users can't manually set it to days other than the start date.
No success using jQuery so far. Looking for help.
You could use the below script to set end date to equal start date:
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function PreSaveAction(){
var startDate = $('input[title="Start Time Required Field"]').val();
$('input[title="End Time Required Field"]').val(startDate);
return true;
}
</script>

When I change the start date, the end date on my calendar changes to be the same. I want the start date to have no effect on the end date.
<input id="date" name="range">
$(function() { $("#date").daterangepicker(); });
If you set up your calendar as in the jQuery docs, you wont have this issue - you need two separate inputs for the date range:
https://jqueryui.com/datepicker/#date-range
Currently it appears to be changing the end date so it is no earlier than the start date range.
I use the jquery datepicker in an Angular Application and I noticed a behavior that I would like to prevent.
The application consists of an input field for the date and a select box for a month selection.
If the months in the select box are changed, the minDate of the jquery date picker should be adjusted.
I tried the following example:
I set the date in the input field to the 24.04.2018
I chose October
The date of the input field is automatically set to 24.10.2018
I do not want the content of the Inputs field to be automatically adjusted.
Here is my git-hub project: https://github.com/annalen/jquery-datepicker
Many thanks for the help
Solution
I use the beforeShow and onClose date-picker functions
jQuery(yourElement).datepicker('option', 'beforeShow', function (date) {
return {
'minDate': yourMinDate,
'maxDate': yourMaxDate
};
});
jQuery(yourElement).datepicker('option', 'onClose', function (date) {
jQuery(this).datepicker('option', {
'minDate': null,
'maxDate': null
});
});
The datepicker updates the date only if the selected one is out of the range.
For example, if the current selected date is 24.04.2018 and you set the minDate to 20.04.2018, nothing will happen.
But if you set it to any date after 24.04.2018, it will get updated. I believe it's normal since its the purpose of setting a minDate.
You can always set yourself manually the input's value: $('#datepicker').val('20.04.2018') but I don't think it's a good idea to have something displayed different than the internal datepicker component state (the calendar that will popup will show a different date than the one in the input)

The jquery datepicker defaultdate will not automatically set to next available date when the graphical calendar is persistent on a page. the initial date the calendar selects can be a date that i have disabled. Many suggestions on workaround work when the calendar is a popup to an input field, but do not work when the calendar is persistently shown as a div. doesn't matter if the dates disabled are by noWeekends, by the day of week, or individually set days, the initial date value can be a disabled and unclickable date. I am using the alternate1 input field (which i normally hide) to pass data onto a PHP page. What i have almost works, but the next available date shows as highlighted when minDate happens to land on an available date, but when minDate lands on an unselectible date, the highlight is hidden. The temporary fix i used of setDate null - clears the initial selection value regardless of the highlight, so a visitor may think the a date is already selected when it is not. My PHP page reports back to the visitor that they have to go back and actually select a date. My use of datepicker is geared toward mobile, so popup or flyout calendar to make use of well known workarounds is unfavorable, the calendar GUI needs to be persistent on the page. To recreate my issue for yourself, on the jsfiddle, comment out the last javascript line, disallow a date mid-week in the var selections, and then set the minDate so that it will land on the disallowed date. you'll notice the alternate1 input gets prefilled with the disallowed date.
html code:
<div id="dp1"></div>
<input type="text" id="alternate1" name="alternate1"/> <!-- style="display:none;" this is the field that passes on to php -->
javascript code:
var selections = [
"2017-07-29",
"2017-07-30",
"2017-08-05",
"2017-08-06",
"2017-08-12",
"2017-08-13",
"2017-08-19",
"2017-08-20",
"2017-08-26",
"2017-08-27",
"2017-09-02",
"2017-09-03",
"2017-09-04",
"2017-09-09",
"2017-09-10",
"2017-09-16",
"2017-09-17",
"2017-09-23",
"2017-09-24",
"2017-09-30",
"2017-10-01",
"2017-10-07",
"2017-10-08",
"2017-10-09",
"2017-10-14",
]
function bansingle(date) {
var excerpt = jQuery.datepicker.formatDate('yy-mm-dd', date);
return [ selections.indexOf(excerpt) == -1 ]
}
// somehow combine this function later.
//function bandow(date) {
// var day = date.getDay();
// return [(day != 0 && day != 6)];
// }
$('#dp1').datepicker({
beforeShowDay: bansingle,
altField:'#alternate1',
altFormat: 'm-d-yy',
fielddateFormat: 'm-d-yy',
minDate: "+0d",
//maxDate: "+1m", // set latest selectable date
});
$('#dp1').datepicker("setDate", null); //clears alternate1 input field value
Here is the jsfiddle it does contain more dates and a little CSS. I recommend opening it in a new tab, to be able to return to this page after editing code.
the progress of my other question here has negated the need for an answer to this question. pursuing multiple changes to input, styling, and options - will workaround this question's problem.
I need to get the Start and the End dates of the next/ preview month view when click the next or preview buttons in the Full Calendar.
Ex : Say current viewing month is January and when I click next button I need to get start and end dates February calendar view or when click preview button it should return December.
$('#calendarId’).fullCalendar('getView').start will return current view start and end dates
but i need to returning the other month (next or preview) start and end dates.
Explain : I am in the month view and i can get the all the start and end dates and current dates etc by using the available options in the calendar. But I need is just assume I have to obtain the next month start date and end date before i go the next or preview view by clicking next/preview button.
It sounds like if you are in the month view all you need is the month and year you have navigated to. From the month and year you can determine the begin and end date of that month. http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/docs/current_date/getDate/.
From doc:
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('getDate');
To enable caching:
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
events: {
url: '/myfeed.php',
cache: true
}
});
Thanks all,
I used default caching and events(as a function) feature in the Full calendar. http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/docs2/event_data/events_function/
I have a jQuery datepicker and I cannot figure out how to programmatically change the month back to the current month. After making a POST request to save the user's dates I need to return the calendar back to the current month. The calendar may be on a different month from the user playing around with different dates. I have tried setting the mindate again but that did not work.
This is not a popup calendar.
Setting the datepicker back to today
$('#myDatePicker').datepicker('setDate', new Date());
setting just the month back
var date = $('#myDatePicker').datepicker('getDate');
date.setMonth( (new Date()).getMonth() );
$('#myDatePicker').datepicker('setDate', date);
FIDDLE
You can also use .val() to set the date
$("#datepicker").val(date);
