DatePickerFor not working with Model Binding

[Emma]

Hi Support Team,

I upgrade my project from .Net 8.0 Telerik 2024 Q3 to .Net 9.0 Telerik 2024 Q4

I have an issue with DatePickerFor. Currently DatePickerFor data not showing when using model binding with DateTime? (allow null). 

Note: This issue was working with Telerik 2024 Q3.

I create simple ASP.NET MVC Core project:

+ TestDateVM view model: 

 public class TestDateVM
 {
     public DateTime? Date { get; set; }
 }

+ HomeController.cs : I set value Date for view model = 01 Nov 2024

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    public IActionResult Index()
    {
        var filter = new TestDateVM();
        filter.Date = new DateTime(2024, 11, 1);
        return View(filter);
    }
}

+ Index.cshtml

@model TestDateVM
@{
    ViewData["Title"] = "Home Page";
}

<div class="row">
    Date
    <div class="col-sm-3 form-group">
        @{
            Html.Kendo().DatePickerFor(s => s.Date).Format("dd MMM yyyy")
            .HtmlAttributes(new { id = Guid.NewGuid().ToString() }).Render();
        }
    </div></div>

When run project, DatePicker not show data of model binding. DatePicker should show value = 01 Nov 2024. Please help me how DatePickerFor work with Model Binding with new Telerik version 2024 Q4

Below is a result picture when I run simple project above.

 

Thanks
