Hi there and welcome to the Community, @Kaleb_Willey :waving_hand:

We agree that it would be great to have this feature built in our widget, and we’ll try to think about it in the future.

As for now, here is the workaround you can use:

Add the Hidden field to your form

Copy the ID of the Hidden field and add it to the Subject field in the Notify Me section

Adding the code to the Custom JS

Add the code below to the Custom JS section on the Settings tab:

function formatDateTime() {
    const now = new Date();
    
    const day = String(now.getDate()).padStart(2, '0');
    const month = String(now.getMonth() + 1).padStart(2, '0');
    const year = String(now.getFullYear()).slice(-2);
    const minutes = String(now.getMinutes()).padStart(2, '0');
    const seconds = String(now.getSeconds()).padStart(2, '0');

    return `[${day}${month}${year}${minutes}${seconds}]`;
}

const date = formatDateTime();
widget.setFieldValue('[current-date]', date)

Replace current-date in the last line of the code with the actual ID of your Hidden field


Please check it out and let me know if you like the result :slightly_smiling_face:
