adding additional attributes to "EditorFor" control

[mossywossy]

Hi,
I am migrating an old MVC razor project to use Bootstrap and have been finding this solution to the task great.
However, I have been trying to add additional attributes to an input control for a DateTime property type. I would typically do this as follows:

@html.EditorFor(model => model.DateTimeFrom, new { Attribute1 = "valueOfAttribute1"})

This is not working. The attribute isn't rendered at all in the resulting page. I believe this is down to this Bootstrap for MVC solution. Is it? Or am I using it incorrectly?

Kind regards.

Tomas

Either override the editor templates.. here is a walkthrough of how to do
it
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/nunos/archive/2010/02/08/quick-tips-about-asp-net-mvc-editor-templates.aspxthis
shows webforms view engine, but it is identical with razor
or
use the uihint attribute to force that property to use a special editor
template.

Hi Eric! Thanks!

Cringe :-( ... I feel bad posting this as an issue after now realising that it was more down to my lack of knowledge of MVC and Editor Templates and therefore nothing to do with how Bootstrap for MVC4 operates per se.

Thanks again for the help.
