Forms 11 Default Date Format

Forms Version 11

asked on May 19, 2022

Is there a way to have ALL date fields in Forms 11 to show up as in picture below. I don't want to change the format everytime i insert a date field. As it stands right now, everytime i insert a date field into a form I get YYYY-MM-DD.

Did you ever find a way to do this? I also wish I could set a particualr format to all date fields.

I was told that the default is controlled by whatever date default is used on the server where all your Laserfiche products reside. Of course, if your Laserfiche is Cloud based, this would be different.

I'm finding that this isn't true. The short date format on my server hosting Forms is M/d/yyyy and every time I use the Date field on a form I have to change the format from YYYY-MM-DD to MM/DD/YYYY.

@████████ can we get a way to set a global default date format?

There are some enhancements we want to do for date fields especially in field rules and when filling the form, namely consistency with formatting and adding masking so we remove any guesswork on our end for the intended date. I'll add this to that list.
