I have this site - <a href="http://www.sublimecupcakes.com/place-an-order/" rel="nofollow">http://www.sublimecupcakes.com/place-an-order/</a> that after the location is chosen the date picker is available. I need to blank out past days as well as the current day, since cupcakes need to be ordered 24 hours in advance. If anyone has an idea on how to limit those things that would be great.</p> <p>Also bonus goes to someone who can suggest a method for disabling July 4th and Christmas day as we are closed then.</p> <p>Thanks, Jonathan </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/limit-date-field-to-only-current-date-and-future-dates-%e2%80%93within-wordpress#post-68603 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 14:20:30 +0000 m.cabiles 68603@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Kevin,</p> <p>Thanks for the info... I was able to change the limit for the DatePicker UI, but not for the DropDown Date...

Eventually, we plan to add some of these parameters as built in options on the date field. For now, you can read up on the links below for the info you need.

Yes, I tried to follow along with the related posts in the forum. They appeared helpful, but if your using WordPress they all end up sending you to codex. Those suggested script edits are more advanced and a migraine was the only outcome here. JQuery wizard I am not. </p> <p>Has anyone else using "WordPress" actually accomplish this task?</p> <p>I appreciate any assistance. </p> <p>Thank you in advance.<br /> Lees from Boston </p>
