[Solved] Django 1.11 – forms.Models: change default form widget for DateTimeField


Are you able to include any more of your code. i.e. Have you created a forms.py file? I presume you will be creating ModelForms?

If you have you can do something like this:

from django.forms import widget
Class DateInput(forms.DateInput):
    input_type="date"

Class Example(models.ModelForm):
    class Meta: #insert class Meta below
         model = #reference your model
         fields = () #include fields you want to display from your model
         widgets = {
               'missing_date': Date_Input()
         }
