There is a field 'landline' which i have a filter set to startofday to control this field, however i am needing this date to be changed not on a permanent basis just read only so that anyone who doesnt have a JIRA account can still go my JIRA website and have preloaded dashboards (i think i need about 5) which simply show anything with date in the landline field however for that specific date that they are wanting to see.

Date range would be probably just a month behind till todays date however default to anything with todays date as landline date

Hello Thomas,

* Can you clarify a bit more what this date range is based off of? 
* The dashboard would be read only yet you would like users to be able to specify a date range correct?
* If you can provide the above I create the filter on my end and provide you the configuration steps.

Thanks,
