Is there a way to validate the field type ”calendar” so that it isn’t possible to write anything else in the field but date and time .

We have had cases where the visitor has filled in the field with additional information besides from date and time and then the automation with Zapier / Google calendar does not work as it should.

An example where it went wrong:
2021-01-14 kl 13:13 picks up between, 14-15

In the example above the customer has written ”picks up between, 14-15” efter the time and date.

The correct inbut should only be:
2021-01-14 kl 13:13

(There is another text field for additional comments like "picks up between, 14-15" in the form)

Hi,

I haven't tested this yet, I am a little crowded (I will try to finish this today).
If there is no answer of mine, please remind me.

Thanks for understanding

Hi,

please go to calendar element->Properties-> and as Format set:
%Y-%m-%d kl %H:%M

After that go to this element->Properties->Validation->check Custom and put this:
function ff_NAMEOFCALENDAR_validation(element, message)
{
var pattern = /(19|20)[0-9]{2}\-(0|1)[0-9]\-[0-3][0-9]\s\w{2}\s([01][0-9]|2[0-3])\:[0-5][0-9]$/;
if(pattern.test(element.value)) return '';
if (message=='') message = element.name+" faild in my test.\n"
 ff_validationFocus(element.name);
 return message;
  
  
} // ff_NAMEOFCALENDAR_validation
Please replace NAMEOFCALENDAR with name of your calendar element (not title)

Let me know if you need anything else
