Custom Validators

Hi,

again me with an issue on the time Element. Is there a way to set the time field up so 00:00 can’t be selected? Since I use this to track time spent on tasks, rather than an hour in a day, 00:00 should not be selected.

Thanks in advance,

M

As usual! Great support…

Really sorry but there one thing I just realised when I checked the submissions.

I have a form which writes all the data in a database. One field also writes the date using the given variable yyyy-mm-dd

No I just realised that when someone at the East coast of the US fills in the form after 4pm their time the date submitted comes in with a day too early. For example some users submitted their form on 30/06/2015 at 5pm (us time) – in the database the date selected is already the 01/07/2015.

Is there any way I can have the date populated to the database but taking the local date of the user rather than the server location? i’d like to avoid to add a manual date selector, just for convenience.

Would be great if you have a tip.

Found this in the tips. And added a hidden date selector… see how this goes.

function mytheme_date_today()
{
$now = current_time('timestamp');

return array(
'day' => date('j', $now),
'month' => date('n', $now),
'year' => date('Y', $now)
);
}
add_filter('iphorm_element_value_today', 'mytheme_date_today');

Brilliant!
Had to change:
$('.iphorm_1_1').val((new Date()).yyyymmdd());
to:
$('input[name=iphorm_1_1]').val((new Date()).yyyymmdd());

but now its working like charm. Couldn’t have done without your help!

Thanks again.
