Django form.as_p DateField not showing input type as date

Question

Working on my first django app, and I have a model defined with some DateFields, and then a ModelForm off of that model i.e.

models

Answer 1

There's no need to subclass DateInput.

class MyModelForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = MyModel
        fields = '__all__'
        widgets = {
            'my_date': DateInput(attrs={'type': 'date'})
        }
