The date field in Whirr allows users to input dates within your projects. Whether you're gathering customer information, scheduling, or more, the date field gives you the necessary data.

How to add a date field

You can add a date field in Whirr in the same way you summon other blocks in your project. To start, hit / to begin a quick command. Then, type date.

The date field will appear in the quick command menu, select it, and there it is!

How to customize a date field

Customizing your date field is easy. Simply hover over the block's grab handle. Click to edit.

The date field allows you to customize various options including

  • Placeholder text

  • Whether the field is required, or not

  • Toggling to collect a date range

Let's talk more specifically about the date block's date range option

How to collect a date range

When the date field's "Range enabled" toggle is on, that means the block is collecting two dates. The date range option can be particularly useful in various scenarios where both a start and an end date are required.
