Topic: Update settings for datepicker after initialization
Expected behavior
I would like to be able to reset & change the settings on a given datepicker object after I have initialized it. Is this possible?
How do I programmatically
- clear the currently selected date
- change the available days on the object
Actual behavior
the code example below stacks multiple copies of the calendar object on the same input field.
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)
// initialize based on default selected pickup location
$('#pickup-date').datepicker({
firstDay: true,
min: true,
max: 9,
format: 'dddd – m/dd/yyyy',
disable: [true, [pickup_ready_day.year(), pickup_ready_day.month(), pickup_ready_day.date()]]
})
// chose new pickup location with different available pickup day.
// clear chosen date ???
$('#pickup-date').datepicker({
disable: [true, [pickup_ready_day.year(), pickup_ready_day.month(), pickup_ready_day.date()]]
})

Hi. This is not possible at the moment.

Thank you for clarifying.
Is this something that is likely in the near future or should I replace the DOM element to install an update calendar?
thanks.

At the moment it is not possible. This option is only available in MDB 5. In MDB 4, simply removing and re-adding the timepicker with the desired options should help, but remember that it will not remove the class instance from memory.

Thanks for the clarification.
I'll begin looking at MDB5 but will redesign the UX for the page to not use a datepicker.

I hope MDB5 will meet your requirements and you will achieve this effect in the future :)
