DatePicker Custom Footer Without Link

[dwhite]

I'm trying to use a custom footer in the KendoUI DatePicker, I'm able to do this, however it's always wrapped in the today link. For example:

 

<a href="#" class="k-link k-nav-today" title="Monday, April 13, 2015">
    ... My Custom Footer Code ...
</a>

Is there a way to prevent my footer code from being wrapped in the link?

Hi dwhite,

This is not supported out of the box, however you can achieve similar results using the open event handler and manual DOM manipulations. For example: 

<script id="footer-template" type="text/x-kendo-template">
    <strong>#=text#</strong>
</script>
<script>
$("#datepicker").kendoDatePicker().getKendoDatePicker().one("open", function(e) {
  var t = kendo.template($("#footer-template").html());
  var dp = this;
  setTimeout(function(){
    dp.dateView.popup.wrapper.find(".k-footer").append(t({text: "testing"}));
  });
});
