Date
A date picker.
This question type is commonly used for getting a responder's date of birth or their preference for when an event should take place.
The answer to a date question is stored as Formsort subtype date and are always formatted as ISO 8601.

Limiting answers to a specific timeframe

You can force the responder to pick dates in the future or in the past by enabling the Only allow dates in the past? or Only allow dates in the future? options. This way you can ensure that your responder's birthdates are not in the future or they do not accidentally schedule an event in the past

Allowing multiple answers

Enabling allow multiple answers lets the respondent pick more than one date as an answer to a question.

Date picker styling options

The date picker menu can either be native to the platform the respondent is using (e.g. using Google’s date picker on Chrome) or can inherit from the dropdown menu styling.
In order to change the styling of the date picker, you can go to the style tab with the question selected.
