They should be in the source code just before the div "blog" but there doesn't seem to be anything there,</p> <p>I've also changed the wordpress urls all to www. (this site is used primarily for testing and development so I didn't really worry with those sort of things)</p> <p>As you can see, the test page still doesn't have the date picker working, where as the share competition page does since I've hardcoded in the scripts there </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/date-picker-not-working-7#post-66277 Sat, 14 Jul 2012 20:42:51 +0000 Chris Hajer 66277@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>With the shortcode method, the scripts should be enqueued automatically by Gravity Forms. Is there anything on your site that interferes with shortcode processing? Anything in your theme's functions.php that could cause this?</p> <p>Hard coding the scripts will work for a while, but is not a good solution. You need to find the root of the problem.</p> <p>Can you set up a temporary page using a new page template, and call the form with the function call, and enqueue the scripts manually? It might help narrow the problem down.</p> <p>Is it possible you have something strange going on with your subdomains of www and competitions? Your WordPress URL and website URL in the wp-admin options page? I see you hard coded the scripts with a different domain than where the website is located. </p> <p>Is it possible your site is at <strong>www.</strong> but this page lives at <strong>competitions.</strong>? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/date-picker-not-working-7#post-66255 Sat, 14 Jul 2012 11:39:53 +0000 robobobo 66255@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm calling it via the shortcode method, it's almost as if something is stripping out the javascript which just makes no sense as there is nothing in place that could do this. I might try adding it in manually and see if I can make it work that way</p> <p><strong>Update:</strong><br /> I hard coded in the javascript into to my head and now it's working!

It does not look like the datepicker JavaScript is present.

In Gravity Forms' settings, what toggle switches do you have set? The date picker does work in preview mode, and in Twenty-Eleven, it is definitely some conflict with the theme, but I don't see any JavaScript errors listed when I use Chrome's Inspect tool, so I'm at a bit of a loss as well. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/date-picker-not-working-7#post-66026 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:47:13 +0000 robobobo 66026@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hey guys,</p> <p>I know there seems to be a fair few people with this problem, but I can't seem to fix it at all. Maybe one of you experts could have a look for me?</p> <p>I've got 3 date picker fields (trying to test them and get them to work) on this page <a href="http://competitions.social365.ie/?page_id=29" rel="nofollow">http://competitions.social365.ie/?page_id=29</a></p> <p>As you can see, none of them work. I've only got 3 plugins on the site - gravity forms, custom post types and advanced custom fields. I disabled them all anyway to rule them out (except for gravity forms of course) and the date picker still doesn't work.</p> <p>The date picker does work in preview mode and also when I activate the 2011 wordpress theme. However not in this theme that I'm currently building from scratch. There's no javascript or jquery in the site at all which is what has me stumped and I can't see any errors. Can someone give me a hand here as this date picker is central to my site</p> <p>Thanks for your help! </p>
