 * `yearSuffix` additional text to append to the year in the title
 * `showMonthAfterYear` render the month after year in the title (default `false`)
 * `showDaysInNextAndPreviousMonths` render days of the calendar grid that fall in the next or previous months to the current month instead of rendering an empty table cell (default: false)
+* `convertDateToMinOrMaxDate` If minDate or maxDate is supplied then by default `setDate` function will convert date to minDate, if passed date is less than minDate, or convert date to maxDate, if passed date is greater than maxDate. Set this to false if you dont want this behaviour. (default: true)
 * `numberOfMonths` number of visible calendars
 * `mainCalendar` when `numberOfMonths` is used, this will help you to choose where the main calendar will be (default `left`, can be set to `right`). Only used for the first display or when a selected date is not already visible
 * `theme` define a classname that can be used as a hook for styling different themes, see [theme example][] (default `null`)
