dhtmlx-compat does not recognise editorType '{editorType}'; the default text editor was used instead.

What happened

A column carried a dhtmlx editorType the shim has no mapping for. The column is still editable - editing was not switched off - but it was given the plain text editor, so a date, a select or a checkbox column will edit as free text and will accept values its type would have rejected.

The fix

Set the Lattice editor for that column directly (edit: { editor: 'date' } and so on), which also gives you the editor options the dhtmlx name cannot carry.

The smallest fix

columns: [{ id: 'due', type: 'date', edit: { enabled: true, editor: 'date' } }]
