Hi, all I'm wondering if there is a way to have the DATE box auto-fill with the current system date? I have searched and haven't found this mentioned at all. I'm using the latest version, and hosting the form locally.
Thanks!
Date function default to current date...

Add this to the input value.
value="<?php echo date('m/d/Y'); ?>"
So your date input will look something like this on the formname.html
value="<?php echo date('m/d/Y'); ?>"

<input name="date" class="datepicker" id="item34_date_1" required type="text"
data-hint="" value="<?php echo date('m/d/Y'); ?>" />

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Joyous day. Is there a way to do this with the latest version of Web Form Builder 2.5+ ?
I have tried the older and other suggestions without success.
Please advise...thanks!

Here' another way.
Paste the code below into a html element.
Adjust the date1 in jQ('input[name="date1"]').val(currdate); to the name of your input.
