Change time via jquery?

I think it might be better to ‘rebuild’ the picker when that option changes.

This is just an example code, that you can explore and adapt to your needs:

datepickeropts.timepicker = 'off';
datepickeropts.value = '12/14/2019';
datepickeropts.format = 'MM\/DD\/YYYY';
dtp_init();

This switches off the timepicker, sets the date to a specific value, sets the format without the time and resarts the picker.
The opposite would be something like:

datepickeropts.timepicker = 'on';
datepickeropts.value = '12/14/2019 15:00';
datepickeropts.format = 'MM\/DD\/YYYY hh:mm A';
dtp_init();

The format will depend on what you have selected in the options and you might need to have the date value automatically, instead of hardcoded.

This is already a customization and outside the support I can provide, but hope it helps.

Hi carlos!
many thanks – that works!

BUT I have one issue found – if the plugin is activated the times which will be shown on my site are 1 hour before the actual time.
If i deactivate the plugin the time is correct.

Thanks!

EDIT:
It seems that the UTC time will be taken instead of the local time because thats also one hour difference.
Thanks!

Hi @andreaskastl
In the next update I’ll have some changes to how the plugin handles timezones.
You can try the new version already downloading it directly from github at https://github.com/carmoreira/date-time-picker-field
You can check if that new version doesn’t interfer with the time of your website.
It would be helpful if you test and give me some feedback actually, so I know if it’s working for others also.
Cheers, Carlos

Hi Carlos!
I have tried the new version …. IT WORKS!
Many thanks – Great support!

thank you for testing @andreaskastl and for the positive feedback.
Cheers, Carlos

sorry I have one more question:

I’m not so familar with java – you told me I can change the value with this line:
datepickeropts.value = ’12/14/2019 15:00′;

I have in my form two datepickers, one for starttime one for endtime.
How can I add a class or ID to this “datepickeropts.value = ’12/14/2019 15:00′;” that only the #starttime will be changed?

Many thanks!
