What it does
Date fields cause trouble on many forms. Visitors type dates in different formats, pick days you are closed, or choose a date that has already passed. This add-on works inside Formidable Forms, so you keep building forms the way you already do and simply get extra options on your date fields. It suits booking forms, event registrations and appointment schedulers, where the date someone picks has to be one you can actually honor.
You can set the date format to match regional habits or project needs, restrict past or future dates, and disable weekends or specific days such as holidays. If you prefer a calendar that is always visible, you can embed the datepicker inline instead of showing it in a popup. The picker works on desktops, tablets and phones, supports multiple languages and date locales, and is configured through settings without any coding.
Best for
- Businesses taking bookings or appointments through Formidable Forms
- Event organizers running registration forms
- Multilingual sites needing local date formats
Features
Custom date formats
Display dates in the format your audience expects, whether you follow regional conventions or a specific format required by your project or records.
Past and future date limits
Restrict selection of past dates, future dates or both, so visitors cannot submit a date outside the range you accept.
Block specific dates
Mark individual dates, such as holidays or closures, as unavailable so they cannot be chosen in the calendar.
Disable weekends
Turn off Saturdays and Sundays in the picker, which helps when you only take bookings or appointments on weekdays.
Inline datepicker
Embed the calendar directly in the form layout so it stays visible, giving a compact look without a popup.
Language and locale support
Works with various languages and date locales, which makes it a good match for sites serving international visitors.
Mobile-friendly picker
The date selector adapts to desktops, tablets and smartphones so visitors can pick a date on any device.
