WP Datepicker is a free WordPress plugin to display date field on WordPress post, page, contact and event forms. You can enter multiple CSS selectors as CSV to display date field on desired forms or pages. You can enable date field for backend which means datepicker will be implemented in wp-admin as well. It is possible to make datepicker field editable or readonly. There is an option to enable weekends so, Saturdays and Sundays will be removed from datepicker as some service businesses do not offer weekend service. You can set months to full or short form and can edit date format or default date. It saves changes automatically.

Excellent datepicker
by thebakhodirov·2 years ago·1 reply
I was looking for a datepicker extension for my CF7 form. I tried out many other similar plugins but that did not work for me, until I found this one. This plugin allows to customize the date format and I can even customize the look of the datepicker with CSS which I needed. The only thing needs improvement is the UI of admin panel.
Great Support!

The Support on this plugin is phenomenal. I found a problem with a new version (in latest WP version and php 8.1), reported it and the developer replied immediately and provided a fix the next morning. You can’t beat service like that.
Great plugin, great support!

What else can I say than: awesome plugin which does exactly what I want and what I did not find in other plugins. The support is also great and the developer is a very nice guy and good listener. Tries to cater to the needs of his clients, very polite.
Just awesome. 5 stars, nothing less deserved!
Works for me! congratulations 🎉👏👏👏
