(Solved) Just want the today date in a field

Hello

i'm new with chronoform, i'm still testing it before make a subscription

I think my issue is simple, but I can't resolve it in spite of searching through the forum, but maybe be I miss the answer.

I just want to have the date when a user fill the form

In the wizard I add an hidden field named 'date' and put in the value field

<?php echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s'); ?>

--> see in the FAQ

then I create the table, and change the Type by 'Datetime'

When I fill the form, I have only'0000-00-00 00:00:00'

I'm doing something wrong

Thanks for your help

Dimitri

Hi Dimitri,

Where do you want to use the date? ChronoForms will automatically add a date to any Database records saved.

The code you used should add a date to the $_POST array, it's impossible to say what the problem is without seeing the html for the input and the code you are using to output it.
