Slash command to paste Todays date as plain text

Like for timestamping SOP/document udpates, by typing "/today", the date will automatically autopopulate (but not change - it's static text)

November 21, 2019

Slash commands for Dates

Martin Widemann

Could you add some slash commands for easy date insert? Like...
/now 
/time
/today 
/date 
commands should be self explaining ;-)

Any update on this one? 
In OneNote one can do ALT-SHIFT-D and the date is added. 
ALT-SHIFT-F input date/time
For notes, descriptions, etc... adding dates is very important.

Molnár Róbert

it is a must have feature. Current date and current time plain text insert with slash

This would be great to have!

Martin Widemann

please add also...
/now 
/time
/today 
/date

Yes, another big vote for this! Coming from Notion, I really miss this feature.

Chris Nicola

This is so common in other products like Notion and Paper. You can use it in templates as well, for example

@today

will replace that with today's date whenever the template is used.

Was really surprised when this wasn't available.

Great suggestion. But I think it's a duplicate. Upvote this one - https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/slash-command-to-paste-todays-date-as-plain-text

This would be SO helpful when making notes and updates in team tasks when something was done. How often do we put a note of when somebody did work on an item before the task is closed? Sure, people can look more carefully at what the date of a comment is in ClickUp, but what about the leaders that are consuming updates via email or notification? Even people reading in the app often don't pay attention to the comment's date.

When typing //+Enter in the Confluence page, you will get today's date immediately.
Please implement a similar Slash command to toggle the Today date/Current date for DOC and Long Text field in ClickUp as well https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/long-text-field-with-rich-text-format
As you can see in my example in the screenshot below, in ClickUp we can for instant type /Today+Enter, then the system will display November 21st 2019.
