Disable time in bootstrap date time picker

I tried all of the solutions posted here but none of them worked for me. I managed to disable the time by using this line of code in my jQuery:

$('#datetimepicker4').datetimepicker({
    format: 'YYYY-MM-DD'
});

This set the format to date only and disabled the time completely. Hope this helps.


Check the below snippet

<div class="container">
<div class="row">
    <div class='col-sm-6'>
        <div class="form-group">
            <div class='input-group date' id='datetimepicker4'>
                <input type='text' class="form-control" />
                <span class="input-group-addon"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-time"></span>
                </span>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(function() {              
           // Bootstrap DateTimePicker v4
           $('#datetimepicker4').datetimepicker({
                 format: 'DD/MM/YYYY'
           });
        });      
    </script>
</div>

You can refer http://eonasdan.github.io/bootstrap-datetimepicker/ for documentation and other functions in detail. This should work.

Update to support i18n

Use localized formats of moment.js:

  • L for date only
  • LT for time only
  • L LT for date and time

See other localized formats in the moment.js documentation (https://momentjs.com/docs/#/displaying/format/)


$('#datetimepicker').datetimepicker({ 
    minView: 2, 
    pickTime: false, 
    language: 'pt-BR' 
});

Please try if it works for you as well


This is for: Eonasdan's Bootstrap Datetimepicker

First of all I would provide an id attribute for the <input> and then initialize the datetimepicker directly for that <input> (and not for the parent container):

<div class="container">
  <input data-format="yyyy-MM-dd" type="text" id="datetimepicker"/>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
  $(function() {
    // Bootstrap DateTimePicker v3
    $('#datetimepicker').datetimepicker({
      pickTime: false
    });
    // Bootstrap DateTimePicker v4
    $('#datetimepicker').datetimepicker({
      format: 'DD/MM/YYYY'
    });
  });
</script>

For v3: Contrary to Ck Maurya's answer:

  • pickDate: false will disable the date and only allow to pick a time
  • pickTime: false will disable the time and only allow to pick a date (which is what you want).

For v4: Bootstrap Datetimepicker now uses the format to determine if a time-component is present. If no time component is present, it won't let you choose a time (and hide the clock icon).
