Insert label inside bootstrap datetimepicker

Question

Is there a way to add hour/minute label to eonasdan's bootstrap datetimepicker like shown in the screenshot?

Answer 1

As ceejayoz stated in comments, the datetimepicker does not include this kind of functionality. The library is open source and you can customize the code and the look & feel as suggested.

Another appoach is to add dinamically a row under hours and minutes row when the picker is shown. You can add a listner to dp.show event and then use jQuery to manipulate picker HTML.

Here a working sample:

$('#datetimepicker1').datetimepicker({
  format: 'HH:mm'
});

$('#datetimepicker1').on('dp.show', function(){
  // Check timepicker is visible
  if( $('.timepicker').is(':visible') ){
    // Get rows of the timepicker
    var rows = $('.timepicker>.timepicker-picker>table>tbody>tr');
    // Create html for custom text
    var tr = '<tr class="customText"><td>hours</td><td class="separator"></td><td>minutes</td></tr>';
    // Add custom HTML inside component
    $(rows[1]).after(tr);
  }
});

.bootstrap-datetimepicker-widget table tr.customText td {
  height: 24px;
  line-height: 24px;
}

<div class='input-group date' id='datetimepicker1'>
  <input type='text' class="form-control" />
  <span class="input-group-addon">
    <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></span>
  </span>
</div>

The datetimepicker has the debug option that, if set to true:

Will cause the date picker to stay open after a blur event.
