I am asking participants to fill out a form and sign it (using signature field). I would like a date stamp there,..it seems awkward asking them to fill in a date. After I get the pdf, I sign and date it and return it. Any advice on adding a 'date' stamp?
thanks, Chris

Inside the addOnload() function:
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() {
jQuery("${date://CurrentDate/SL}").insertAfter(".SignatureBox ");
});

https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/22870#Comment_22870So I get this:
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function()
{
/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads*/
});
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function()
{
/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is fully displayed*/
});
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnUnload(function()
{
/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is unloaded*/
});
--- Where do I input?
jQuery("${date://CurrentDate/SL}").insertAfter(".SignatureBox ");

@cshamburg and @EmilyRose,
You could do it as follows:
1. Add a text entry form question after the signature question with one input field "Date:"
2. Make the default answer the current date
3. Use this JS to hide the question text and make the date readonly:
```
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() {
var q = jQuery("#"+this.questionId);
q.find("legend").hide();
q.find(".InputText").prop("readonly",true);
});
```
It will record the date as the answer to a question in your response data and look something like this:

I believe I've got everything in order. Lastly, I'm hoping for the date to show just under the Text Entry box question in the Report Summary. I've got a couple more instances of the same, later in the survey, which are likely to have different dates.

It shows up at the bottom of the report for me. Are you sure you have the date as the embedded data? the "date submitted by participant" is text that I added.

Thanks for your reply cshamburg. I added the element, however the date is not showing on the Response Report. I am under the impression that embedded data does show on reports. Thoughts?
You can add a date in the Survey Flow...here's a screenshot

How do I get the date to show on the response summary?
Thank you so much.

Paste the below code in the signature question JS
`jQuery("<span>${date://CurrentDate/SL}</span>").insertAfter(".SignatureBox ");`

We can use JS, to add a date text before or after the signature box
