How to Disable clicking the month name in Tempus Dominus Datetimepicker

Question

In the Tempus Dominus Datetimepicker, when clicking the month name, it goes to the list of months.

I want to disable this. How shall it be achieved?

Answer 1

In order to disable the month select you can set pointer-events to none for the picker-switch element:

none

The element is never the target of pointer events; however, pointer events may target its descendant elements if those descendants have pointer-events set to some other value. In these circumstances, pointer events will trigger event listeners on this parent element as appropriate on their way to/from the descendant during the event capture/bubble phases.

The snippet:

$('#datetimepicker1').datetimepicker();


$('#datetimepicker1').datetimepicker('toggle');

#datetimepicker1 .bootstrap-datetimepicker-widget .datepicker-days table th.picker-switch {
    pointer-events: none;
}
