Hello,

My customer is having difficulty with the flow of datepicker for birthdate fields (and I assume it would occur anywhere datepicker is called) where they think it's too difficult to choose Month/Year or Year/Month then click on Day to set the field.

Is it possible to enable direct text editing of this field in addition to datepicker, as well as to update field if currently set on month/year change?

See item 3 in this post as well, it is same issue:

Hello,

I realize this is limitation of jQuery UI. How can I change the field instead to be no readonly and use icon trigger?

Hi, Geoff.

You can set Read only" to "yes" or "no" when editing field in backend.

Hi, Geoff.

No, by design this field could be only set using calendar. You can't type anything directly.
Changing this could break registration flow or any other birth date related features.
And it's also will require core files hack... what is not recommended.

You can ask for feature here: uservoice.jomsocial.com/forums/101561-feature-request
Or hire a developer to customize your system: www.jomsocial.com/jomsocial-developers

That's all I can do as we don't provide any core files hacks... I'm sorry.

Ok thanks!

I'm definitely never doing core hacks for JS again. Did some back in JS 2, not a good idea.
