Today as default date

Forum|alt.badge.img+2

Hi there!

would be nice to have an option to enter the current date as a default in a date field, that would save some taps on mobile devices for data entry.

      This is standard stuff and a big miss for you not to implement after all this time…

        Lol, who else came here because they found out such obvious feature was not implemented? :laughing:

        This feature has since been added to a Date field as a toggle option "Default to 'Current Date'".

        However, in testing it for the first time now, I think I've found a critical bug where the field is ignoring specified time zone handling and is displaying the wrong date.

        Note how when I create a new record, that the current date defaults to yesterday.
