My solution was to use JS to make the datepicker 'Read Only'. You can see an example on my page here: <a href="https://hookahi.com/guides/hucks-charters/" rel="nofollow">https://hookahi.com/guides/hucks-charters/</a> . This means that users must select the date on the calendar popup only, and the keyboard won't on mobile devices because the user can't input text.</p> <p>Here is the code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt; jQuery(function() { jQuery( &quot;.datepicker&quot; ).datepicker({ }).attr(&#39;readonly&#39;,&#39;readonly&#39;); }); &lt;/script&gt;</code></pre> <p>Hope this helps :) let me know if you have any questions </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/prevent-keyboard-popup-on-datepicker-for-mobile-devices#post-89614 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 10:45:09 +0000 Ketiga 89614@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>I am trying to prevent the virtual keyboard from popping up on mobile devices when using the datepicker field in gravity forms.</p> <p>Tried a couple of Jquery suggestions I found on the internet, but they didn't work.</p> <p>Please assist... </p>
