I use the Form API to build forms in custom module.

Forms works fine but my custom date format is not applied.

Here is an extract of my form code :

$form['date_debut'] = array(
            '#type' => 'date',
            '#title' => $this->t('Date de début'),
            '#date_date_format' => 'd/m/Y',
            '#description' => t('Cliquez dans le champ et sélectionnez une date de début de congé dans le calendrier'),
            '#required' => TRUE
        );

The date format is d/m/Y

But i still see Y/m/d in the input :

enter image description here

In the DOM, the date format is d/m/Y data-drupal-date-format="d/m/Y"

<input type="text" data-drupal-selector="edit-date-fin" aria-describedby="edit-date-fin--description" data-drupal-date-format="d/m/Y" class="form-date required form-control hasDatepicker" id="edit-date-fin" name="date_fin" value="" required="required" aria-required="true">

When the form is validated, i display a message with the date picker value and the date format is Y/m/d

drupal_set_message($this->t('Vous avez choisi comme date de début : @date_debut', array('@date_debut' => $form_state->getValue('date_debut'))));

See :

Am i missing something? How can i modify this date format visible by the user in the input and in the Drupal message ?

  • What browser are you seeing this in? This question may be a duplicate, too.

  • @mpdonadio you’re right. I didn’t noticed that but i see this issue in Chrome OSX and not on firefox OSX. It seems to be a browser issue ? Commented Sep 14, 2017 at 13:28
  • @mpdonadio i guess it is a duplicate of this question : drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/243286/… Should i delete my question ? Commented Sep 14, 2017 at 13:39
  • Yeah, this is a HTML5 input element complication. That may not be the best question about this. I'll dig. Leave this for now, and we'll close as dup if needed. Otherwise, I will write up a proper answer.

  • Try '#date_format' => 'd/m/Y' instead of '#date_date_format' => 'd/m/Y' Commented Sep 14, 2017 at 14:18
