$(...).datepicker is not a function - JQuery - Bootstrap

Question

I'm trying to include the datepicker for Bootstrap but am getting the following error:

Uncaught TypeError: $(...).datepicker is not a function

I don't see why it's there. I've looked at other cases of this error, but none match mine.

HTML:

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.2.4.min.js" integrity="sha256-BbhdlvQf/xTY9gja0Dq3HiwQF8LaCRTXxZKRutelT44=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="<?php echo BASE_URL; ?>/js/moment.min.js"></script>
<script src="<?php echo BASE_URL; ?>/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="<?php echo BASE_URL; ?>/js/bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.js"></script>
<script src="<?php echo BASE_URL; ?>/js/main.js"></script>

<div class="col-md-6">
    <div class="form-group">
         <label for="geboortedatum">Geboortedatum:</label>
         <div class="input-group datepicker" data-provide="datepicker">
               <input type="text" name="geboortedatum" id="geboortedatum" class="form-control">
               <div class="input-group-addon">
                   <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-th"></span>
               </div>
         </div>
    </div>
</div>

JS:

$(document).ready(function() {

    $('.datepicker').datepicker({
        format: 'dd/mm/yyyy'
    });
});

UPDATE after adding JQuery UI

It now looks like the following:

The plugin reference says datetimepicker and you are calling datepicker — Shaunak D

Please check if you have included bootstrap datetimepicker twice(at the end most of the time) in a file by mistake.. — Prakash Thete

Need to include jquery-ui too:

<script src="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.4/jquery-ui.js"></script>

Take a look to source here jqueryui.com/datepicker maybe you need a css stylesheet

Chris Over a year ago

That's the JQuery datepicker. I'm looking for the bootstrap datepicker

Fseee Over a year ago

bootstrap-datepicker.readthedocs.io/en/latest you can check if all your dependencies are ok. Beware of conflicts bootstrap-jquery too!

Chris Over a year ago

I added all the necessary files. I can't find anything about adding the JQuery UI though

You are also calling wrong function as @François_Richard answer

Not the right function name I think

$(document).ready(function() {

    $('.datepicker').datetimepicker({
        format: 'dd/mm/yyyy'
    });
});

Tried using this, the icon at the end of the input just disappeared

Chris Over a year ago

Fixed it by using some of the CDN files instead of the local ones and by naming the function datetimepicker

To get rid of the bad looking datepicker you need to add jquery-ui css

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.0/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css">

You need to include jQueryUI

$(document).ready(function() {

    $('.datepicker').datepicker({
        format: 'dd/mm/yyyy'
    });
});

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.2.4.min.js" integrity="sha256-BbhdlvQf/xTY9gja0Dq3HiwQF8LaCRTXxZKRutelT44=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script   src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.3/jquery-ui.min.js"   integrity="sha256-xI/qyl9vpwWFOXz7+x/9WkG5j/SVnSw21viy8fWwbeE="   crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="<?php echo BASE_URL; ?>/js/moment.min.js"></script>
<script src="<?php echo BASE_URL; ?>/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="<?php echo BASE_URL; ?>/js/bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.js"></script>
<script src="<?php echo BASE_URL; ?>/js/main.js"></script>

<div class="col-md-6">
    <div class="form-group">
         <label for="geboortedatum">Geboortedatum:</label>
         <div class="input-group datepicker" data-provide="datepicker">
               <input type="text" name="geboortedatum" id="geboortedatum" class="form-control">
               <div class="input-group-addon">
                   <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-th"></span>
               </div>
         </div>
    </div>
</div>

I had similiar problem. The quick fix I found is to change:

<div class="input-group datepicker" data-provide="datepicker">

to

<div class="input-group date" data-provide="datepicker">

 <script type="text/javascript">

    var options={
            format: 'mm/dd/yyyy',
            todayHighlight: true,
            autoclose: true,
        };

    $('#datetimepicker').datepicker(options);

I resolved this by arranging the order in which your JS is being loaded.

You need to have it as jQuery -> datePicker -> Init js

Call your JQuery in your header, datePicker script in head below your jquery and Init JS in footer

If you put your init code in .ready() though, the load order shouldn't matter I don't think?

Abhimanyu Vyas Over a year ago

yes that shall work as well. but its always a good practice to have the right order

You can try the following and it worked for me.

Import following scripts and css files as there are used by the date picker.

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap-datepicker/1.4.1/js/bootstrap-datepicker.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap-datepicker/1.4.1/css/bootstrap-datepicker3.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.0/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css">

The JS coding for the Date Picker I use.

<script>
        $(document).ready(function(){
            // alert ('Cliecked');
            var date_input=$('input[name="orangeDateOfBirthForm"]'); //our date input has the name "date"
            var container=$('.bootstrap-iso form').length>0 ? $('.bootstrap-iso form').parent() : "body";
            var options={
                format: 'dd/mm/yyyy', //format of the date
                container: container,
                changeYear: true, // you can change the year as you need
                changeMonth: true, // you can change the months as you need
                todayHighlight: true,
                autoclose: true,
                yearRange: "1930:2100" // the starting to end of year range 
            };
            date_input.datepicker(options);
        });
    </script>

The HTML Coding:

 <input type="text" id="orangeDateOfBirthForm" name="orangeDateOfBirthForm" class="form-control validate" required>
 <label data-error="wrong" data-success="right" for="orangeForm-email">Date of Birth</label>
