Views Filter Criteria "Now" not working on webform submitted data field:event date
I don't really understand the problem. When a date isn't a date anymore and you can use php you can just convert it back to a date.

You even almost use the correct function.

$submittedDate = $row&gt;value_1;

$Cdate = date('Y-m-d');
$Sdate = date_format(date_create($submittedDate), 'Y-m-d');

if ($Sdate == $Cdate) {
    return TRUE;
}


Shouldn't that do the trick?
