How to use?

To add hs.range-datepicker.js in your page, wrap any block in a parent element with an ID or class and add the same ID or the class in the JS INIT function of the plugin.

Copy-paste the stylesheet <link> into your <head> to load the CSS.

            
              <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../assets/vendor/flatpickr/dist/flatpickr.min.css">
            
          

Copy-paste the following <script> near the end of your pages under JS Implementing Plugins to enable it.

            
              <script src="../../assets/vendor/flatpickr/dist/flatpickr.min.js"></script>
            
          

Copy-paste the following <script> near the end of your pages under JS Space to enable it.

            
              <script src="../../assets/js/components/hs.range-datepicker.js"></script>
            
          

Copy-paste the init function under JS Plugins Init., before the closing </body> tag, to enable it.

            
              <script>
                $(document).on('ready', function () {
                  // initialization of range datepicker
                  $.HSCore.components.HSRangeDatepicker.init('.js-range-datepicker');
                });
              </script>
