I found this topic:
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/year-range-in-types-jquery-ui-datepicker/

But the solution is not in the response you wrote or has been hidden. I need the range to go back to the year 2000 but it only goes back 10 years. How do I extend this? Could you please make your answers clear so others can use the solution?

The specific page is hidden link

Thanks!

Hi Michelle,

Thank you for contacting us and I'll be happy to assist.

You can adjust the year range for the Datepicker, using it's built-in parameter "yearRange".
( ref: hidden link )

For example, to set the year selection to start from "2000" to the "current year", you can add the following code in "JS editor" tab ( under the "Search and Pagination" section in View editor):

$(document).ready(function () {
   $.datepicker.setDefaults({
  	yearRange: "2000:c+0"
	});
});

I hope this helps! Please let us know how it goes and if you need any further assistance.

regards,
Waqar

Hi there,

It looks like this isn't working now. Maybe I was in such a hurry with everything else I was doing at the time I didn't test thoroughly, but I thought it was working. Here's the page on our dev server:

If you search for press releases in a date range prior to 2008 there are no results, even though we have many of them.

I can give you the admin login if that would help. I put the code you gave me in the JS tab of the editor.

Thanks,
Michelle
