How to add close text to datetimepicker bootstrap?

Question

$(function() {
    $('input.month-mode').datetimepicker({
        viewMode: 'months',
        format: 'MM/YYYY',
        showClose: true,
        maxDate: current_month,
    });
});

I want to add close text to it. by default it shows 'X', but I want to change it. Is it possible?

You can use icons option to define a custom css class for your icon and then you can write a css rule to customize close text as shown below:

$(function () {
    var current_month = moment(); // just a sample value
    $('#datetimepicker1').datetimepicker({
        showClose: true,
        viewMode: 'months',
        format: 'MM/YYYY',
        maxDate: current_month,
        icons: {
            close: 'closeText'
        }
    });
});

.closeText:before {
    content: "Close";
}

  <input type='text' class="form-control" />
  <span class="input-group-addon">

  </span>
</div>

One way to do this is to use the icon classes to a add a new class and then use css to add some content. Something like:

$(function() {
        $('input.month-mode').datetimepicker({
            viewMode: 'months',
            format: 'MM/YYYY',
            showClose: true,
            maxDate: current_month,
            icons: {
                close: 'textclass1'
                }
        });
    });

Css:

.textclass1::before {
  content: "Close";
}
