How to use Date filter in render field

[amitchavan90]

{% render_field signupForm.date_of_birth value=request.user.date_of_birth|date:"Y-m-d" class="form-control datepicker" id="date_of_birth" required="true"%}

if you see i want format Y-m-d, but Im not able to use that filter. Django throws error.

Thank you.

I think you need initialize on the part of the view and not on the template. That break django api

Cool.
But having this implemented in this library will make it more useful.
Just a suggestion.

So change the title to a feature request instead of a question. Thanks!
