Step 2: Add the Date Picker to Your Form

1. Create or edit a form:
   • If you’re using WPForms, go to WPForms > All Forms, and edit an existing form or create a new one.
   • If you’re using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), go to Custom Fields > Add New, and create a new field group.
2. Add the date picker field:
   • In WPForms, you can drag and drop the Date / Time field into your form.
   • In ACF, add a new field, select Date Picker as the field type, and assign it to the relevant post/page.

Step 3: Configure the Date Picker Settings

1. Customize the date picker options (optional):
   • You can set date format, time format, and other settings, depending on the plugin you’re using.

Step 4: Save the Form

1. After adding the date picker, click Save to update your form or field group.

Step 5: Display the Form or Field

1. WPForms:
   • Add the form to a post/page by clicking the + button, selecting the WPForms block, and choosing the form you created.
2. ACF:
   • The date picker will now appear where you’ve assigned the custom field (e.g., a post, page, or custom content).

Step 6: Test the Date Picker

1. Visit the page where you’ve added the form or custom field.
2. Ensure the date picker appears and functions as expected.

That’s it! You’ve successfully added a date picker to your WordPress site.
