			<description>&#60;p&#62;I am unclear where the jQuery script to deselect days should go. I have read on another thread it should be in the functions.php within the -child theme folder. This makes logical since due to if anything is updated (Gravity Forms Plugin, WordPress theme, or the CMS itself) the code will be safe in the themename-child directory.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Another way is adding the scripting code inside the Plugins directory (gravityforms/js/datepicker.js). I just appended the javascript (in this example--&#38;gt;http://jsfiddle.net/rLnTQ/104/)  below the markup within datepicker.js. This breaks the datepicker, so I cannot figure this out. Plus if the Plugin is updated the code becomes overwritten.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;My question is when JavaScript/jQuery code is added to maximize the use of the product, where should it go? What is the most efficient way?&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Thank You

			<description>&#60;p&#62;My form can be viewed here: &#60;a href=&#34;http://ngamanuwaiata.teroopuatawhai.com/gravity-forms-issues/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://ngamanuwaiata.teroopuatawhai.com/gravity-forms-issues/&#60;/a&#62; and has more information contained therein regarding some of the solutions i've applied to correct these issues. These issues have only just occurred after the recent update.&#60;br /&#62;
DATEPICKER ISSUES:&#60;br /&#62;
1. Whilst i've addressed most of the datepicker issues with css, i'm still experiencing issues regarding where the calendar is positioned after clicking in the field. Depending on where the field is displayed on the screen (near the top, or near the bottom) It either displays the calendar too far below the field (if near the top), or obscures the field (if near the bottom).&#60;br /&#62;
TIMEPICKER ISSUES&#60;br /&#62;
2. The time picker displays the &#34;HH:MM&#34; parentheses separator in the incorrect position, where it is currently displayed directly above the &#34;HH&#34; field label.&#60;br /&#62;
RECAPTCHA ISSUES&#60;br /&#62;
3. The reCAPTCHA box displays incorrectly and the bottom of the box is scrambled slightly. Sorry, I don't know how else to explain what's happening there...&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I have been through the forums only to find solutions for the datepicker issue (albeit still slightly unresolved), and I have yet to find any related issues regarding my current timepicker or reCAPTCHA box issue. I'm still very new to Wordpress and I don't know how to check if extra scripts are running, but I have checked and discovered that it's a possible Theme conflict. I have disabled all plugins (problem still existed), and I switched my theme to Twenty Ten where everything displayed correctly and as expected.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I hope you can help with these issues - thanks in advance....

			<description>&#60;p&#62;For the past few years, I've been keeping an eye on the booking options within the WordPress universe and, frankly, I am astonished that still, in 2011, there aren't any realistic products.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;The few that do exist have no thought or style behind them, are poorly supported, ridiculously inflexible, rarely updated, insanely priced and foist horrible design and formatting decisions upon you.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;The net effect it that there are no real booking options on WordPress and the received wisdom is that, if you want that sort of functionality, you've got to go and get your hands dirty with Joomla or Drupal.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I don't see any technical reason why booking functionality should not be just as possible on WordPress, I suspect the problem is that WordPress developers have traditionally had blind-spot for this huge market, they simply don't yet get how massive the demand is, despite the never-ending stream of people searching and asking about it on forums.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;What we are talking about is the ability for the user to:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;1. View a calendar showing what dates are currently available.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;2. Choose a date or range of dates.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;3. Pay for that slot.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;4. Have those dates immediately become unavailable to others.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;5. Receive an email notification.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;... no other bells, whistles or fancy formatting required, leave it entirely up to the post to describe and depict what that bookable item is, just give us that bookability.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;It doesn't matter if we are talking about babysitters, photographers, language lessons via Skype, vacation apartments, hookers or xbox rentals; it doesn't matter if you want the user to pay a 10% deposit or the full amount; it doesn't matter if you have one bookable item or thousands ... a plugin that can handle those five basic steps will be universally useful.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;It is as if we are in the stone age of the Internet - how many millions of man hours are wasted every year as customers submit enquiry forms and wait for businesses to check their schedules and reply by hand?  How many transactions end up not happening simply because we've got humans doing what it would be trivial for computers to do?  It's crazy!&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;If you think about it, this would be the perfect extension for what Gravity Forms already does and I know that RockGenius would implement it well and, unlike existing &#34;solutions&#34;, would keep it simple, allowing WordPress to handle the content side of the equation, allowing us to decide what damn photo-slider we want to use.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I truly believe that no other Gravity Forms feature could have as much impact.  At a stroke, it would pull the (extremely lucrative) market for bookings, appointments, reservations and rentals right out from under the existing systems that people are forced to use and bring that entire sector over to Gravity Forms and WordPress.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;And how many new forms of commerce and interaction will spring up if you put the power of running a simple booking system into the hands of regular WordPress users, easier and cheaper than it has ever been before?

			<description>&#60;p&#62;I would like the datepickers on my form to open up automatically for October of this year instead of the current month, but I don't want to preselect a specific date.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I am OK with doing this via jQuery if necessary, just need some direction, thanks.

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Hi,&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I'm setting up a site with the latest Wordpress 3.5.2. I am seeing a Javascript error in Firebug Console when clicking inside my Datepicker text box. The result is that the Datepicker popup doesn't appear.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;TypeError: $.effects.effect is undefined&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I did a little bit of googling, and jQuery may have moved the location of effects and not provided backward compatibility. Any suggestions to fix this?

			<description>&#60;p&#62;I created a form with a date field but the days in the calendar do not display correctly. After some playing around I discovered if I disable my Mailchimp plugin it works correctly. They both use the date picker function I believe so I'm not sure if that's the problem or there is a CSS problem.  Here is the link &#60;a href=&#34;http://sitdoggie.com/contact-sit-doggie/appointment/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://sitdoggie.com/contact-sit-doggie/appointment/&#60;/a&#62; &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Not sure what Gravity form CSS class to use to override any MailChimp classes ?

			<description>&#60;p&#62;I just updated to the latest release and my date picker stopped working.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I tried adding this to my functions.php file as per a previous discussion, but nothing changed.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;if (!is_admin()) {&#60;br /&#62;
	wp_register_script('jquery-migrate', (&#34;http://code.jquery.com/jquery-migrate-1.1.0.min.js&#34;), false, 'latest', false);&#60;br /&#62;
	wp_enqueue_script('jquery-migrate');&#60;br /&#62;

			<description>&#60;p&#62;When I use the datepicker on the frontend in my form, I receive the following error:&#60;br /&#62;
&#34;Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'zIndex' &#34;&#60;br /&#62;
- /wp-includes/js/jquery/ui/jquery.ui.datepicker.min.js?ver=1.9.2&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;As a workaround, I modified the core file form_display.php at line 1510 and commented out the following line :&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;//wp_enqueue_script(&#34;gforms_datepicker&#34;, GFCommon::get_base_url() . &#34;/js/datepicker.js&#34;, array(&#34;jquery-ui-datepicker&#34;), GFCommon::$version, true);&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;and replaced it with the following code to load GF's own verison of the datepicker script.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;wp_register_script('gforms_ui_datepicker', GFCommon::get_base_url() . '/js/jquery-ui/ui.datepicker.js', array('jquery'), GFCommon::$version );&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;This fixed the problem, for now, but I do not want to leave the code hacked.  Can you suggest a better solution please?&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Here is a screencast of the problem for more info:  &#60;a href=&#34;http://screencast.com/t/KewvOldDPdmk&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://screencast.com/t/KewvOldDPdmk&#60;/a&#62;

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Hello. I'm trying to use gform_save_field_value to save a date from a datepicker field (formatted d/m/Y) into iso format (Y-m-d).  My original code is:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;add_filter(&#34;gform_save_field_value&#34;, &#34;save_iso_date&#34;, 2, 9);&#60;br /&#62;
function save_iso_date($value, $lead, $field, $form) {&#60;br /&#62;
  list($day, $month, $year) = explode(&#34;/&#34;, $value);&#60;br /&#62;
  return sprintf('%s-%s-%s', $year, $month, $day);&#60;br /&#62;
}&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;So, for a date given in the datepicker as 06/05/2013, this adds the value in the database as '--2013-05-06' for instance.  If I replace '%s-%s-%s' with something like '%s/%s/%s' it results in '//2013-05-06'.  If I drop the first two characters like so:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;  return substr(sprintf('%s-%s-%s', $year, $month, $day), 2);&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;then what's added to the db is the original string 06/05/2013.  Something weird is happening.  Am I going about this the right way?
&#60;/p&#62;</description>
