The “Date” question can be used to graphically record dates on a calendar in the future or past.
1. Create question
Select the question type “Date” in the left sidebar by clicking on it. The editor will then change in the middle of the screen.
Click on the title of the question to open a sidebar on the right with the following settings.
a) Question title
The question title is the actual question you want to ask the user. For example: “When do you expect your project to be completed?”.
b) JavaScript code
You can execute JavaScript within each question. This is mainly intended for measuring and evaluating. For example, a specific event for advertising networks can be triggered in the question.
c) Description
Click on the description of the question to open a sidebar on the right to enter an optional description.
2. Date settings
Click on the white field with the title “Date settings” or the calendar to open a sidebar on the right with the following settings.
a) Date text
This is a placeholder text that is displayed directly in the input field and helps the user to understand what input is expected here.
b) Date format
Dates can be recorded and saved in various formats such as “dd.mm.yy.”. Alternatives can be “mm.dd.yy” or use other separators such as “dd/mm/yy” or “dd-mm-yy”. You can select the desired date format by clicking on the selection field.
d) Required field
Here you specify whether this question is a mandatory field and therefore a entry must be made.
To finish, click on the “Save” button in the top right-hand corner of the page. A message appears: “Saved successfully!”. If errors occur or entries are missing, an error message will appear. Click on the error message to see what exactly is wrong.
You can also create a new question directly by clicking on the “New question” button. The current content is then saved and a new question is created.
You have now successfully created a “Date” question in Funnelforms.
