Bootstrap datepicker and timepicker icons are misaligned

While working on a Date Picker and Time picker in Bootstrap 4 with bootstrap-datepicker.js and bootstrap-timepicker.js, I encountered an issue. The calendar and time icon are not displaying correctly; they should be inside the input button but instead appear below it.

<div class="col-md-3 columns">
    <label>Date:</label>
    <input data-date-format="dd/mm/yyyy" id="datepicker">  
    <span class="input-group-addon"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></i></span>
</div>
<div class="col-md-2 columns">
    <label>Time:</label>
    <input id="timepicker1" type="text" >
    <span class="input-group-addon"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-time"></i></span>
</div>

Below are the CSS and Javascript files I am using for this project.

Answer №1

If you want to have buttons next to an input field, simply put both the input and button within a .input-group class like this:

<div class="col-md-2 columns">
  <div class="input-group">
    <label>Time:</label>
    <input id="timepicker1" type="text" >
    <span class="input-group-addon"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-time"></i></span>
  </div>

The icons may not be displaying because glyphicons were removed from Bootstrap 4, so you will need to load them separately.
