Ruby on Rails form method with select_datetime

Question

I have a form in Ruby on Rails that uses methods like f.label, f.textarea

I want to also use the same methods for f.select_datetime, but it doesn't work. How can I get a select_datetime input to work with the normal form methods?

        <tr>
          <td><%= f.label :price %>:</td>
          <td>
            <%= f.text_field :price, :placeholder => "price (decimal format, e.g. 12.99 or 19)" %>
          </td>
        </tr>

        <tr>
          <td><%= f.label :ends_at %>:</td>
          <td>
            <%= select_datetime Time.now + 4.days %>
          </td>
        </tr>

can you pleasse show me what the error you got

You can use <%= f.datetime_select Time.now + 4.days %>

Here is the documentation for it: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/DateHelper.html#method-i-datetime_select

You can use like this:

<%= f.datetime_select(:field_name, :default => { Time.now + 4.days }) %>
