Datepicker taghelper

[Christian Sandöy]

Im trying to do this as a taghelper

@(Html.Kendo().DatePickerFor(m => m.Pressefoto).Deferred())

With this

<kendo-datepicker name="Pressefoto" asp-for="Pressefoto" deferred="true" />

asp-for  does not work, no value from model

and I need to specify name or I get a runtime error

Hi Christian,

In order to bind the DatePicker tag helper to a field in the Model you should use the for attribute. The code would look similar to the following. 

<kendo-datepicker name="Pressefoto" for="Pressefoto" deferred="true" />

Give the approach a try and let me know how it works for you.

It worked, thanks

Why is this not documented on, for example, this page: https://docs.telerik.com/aspnet-core/tag-helpers/editors/datepicker/overview

Hello Laurie,

Thank you for the feedback. I have added this to our backlog so additional information regarding the for attribute would be added to the documentation.
