I am trying to add a simple datepicker (which is absolutely absurd that it’s not a generic element)
I am very new to webflow and so far my experience has been horrible. Things aren’t clicking and I’m having a hard time seeing the value in it. It takes way to long to do simple things I don’t see how this is any better than hand coding… but i’ve committed to learning it so hopefully it’ll start clicking.
Anyways I’m trying to add a date picker… something so incredibly simple to do with straight html.
On the pages tab, you can click the cog icon to open the page settings. From there, click and custom code tab and add code to either the header or body of the page. Code added here will only affect that specific page:
In the project settings of your site, click on the custom code tag and add your code to either the header or body of the entire site. Any code placed here will affect your whole site:
I’m really sorry to hear you’re not having the best experience so far with Webflow. There are definitely lots of things the team are constantly working on, and I know I struggled with a solution to this before too. If you’re used to a particular platform as I was, moving across is a huge step.
If you do stick with, you’ll find that most questions have an answer eventually. I’m constantly seeing users and the team do new things I didn’t even know were possible.
You can actually use a really small bit of HTML to add a date picker to a field, although it is a little limited in how much you can style it, it does work.
