Hi,
I have a couple of queries regarding the date fields.
In a form I have two date fields, one one called 'from' and one called 'to'.
Question 1:
I would like to set the 'from' date to be 1st Jan 2018 and then the date field calendar opens the date starts on the 1st of jan, how do i do this ?
Question 2:
When the 'from' date is changed, I need the 'to' date field to start off on the next date of the 'from' date field. How do i do this ?
Thank you for your help ,

For Question 1 here is the solution:
1. Drag and drop two date picker fields
2. For the first field (the from field) click the gear icon to get the properties
3. Click on the options tab
4. Select the date format dd-mm-yyyy
5. Select default date custom and pick your start date (1st Jan 2018)

So just to clarify, you must choose if the from field is filled, then calculate a fields value. Simply type plus one to add a day and finish by clicking the green save button.
Here is the URL for the form:

Thats works perfectly,
Can we add a condition so the 'to' date can never be before the 'from' date ?
thanks.

This seems to work,
Is it the best way to do it, or is another way better ?
thanks.

Yes that is correct. You will have two conditions now.
