Calendar/Date Picker JS Issue

Hi all,

I was reviewing this post and video, however it seems for me the Qualtrics library date questions provided no longer work, and does not allow you to constrain the dates, even when editing the JS.

A developer on my team confirmed there seems to be something wrong with the Javascript. Is anyone else having this issue? 

I am using simple layout.

It is not that surprising that it doesn’t work with Simple layout.  Actually, I never recommend using the Qualtrics library date questions regardless of layout - the JS is dated and clunky.

Two alternatives:

  1. flatpickr
  2. html5 <input type="date">

Thank you! I will try these approaches. My development team and I found the JS in the Library to be broken anyways. It is frustrating that this is the recommended approach in videos/documentation from Qualtrics when it does not work.
