Signature with date automatic

We have a user that used to use Acrobat Pro 11 and when signing a document it would automatically add the timestamp. Now with Acrobat DC, he signs a document and has to do the date manually. Either through the "Add Text" field or dragging from the right-hand pane. Was this feature removed in DC or is there another way to do it?

    Use the Place Signature tool.

    If they use an actual Digital Signature field or the Place Signature command it will work like before. All other options (Write Text, Place Initials, etc.) are not really digital signatures, but just annotations with some text in them.

    We created a digital signature however it is not an available option when trying to "fill and sign". How do we add it as an option to sign a document with?
