Webform views - creating a filter using date from user-submitted data We have a job submissions webform. In the form, there is a "closing date" field with a calendar picker (yyyymmdd format). When the closing date passes, the submission should be removed from view.


I created a relationship for the Submission Data: Expiry Date field so it can be used as a Filter. 





Now that I have the data available as a filter, this is where I get stuck; I need the view to filter out the submission if the Expiry Date has passed. How can I do this?
I just found a patch for this exact functionality. Out of the box, you are right, it acts as its a straight up text field. If you were to use entityform instead of webform, I believe you would be able to do this as it uses normal drupal fields.
