Description
Date Picker for Gravity Forms Pro gives you complete control over date selection in your Gravity Forms.

- Block out public holidays, maintenance days, or fully booked dates
- Show only your available appointment or delivery slots

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a one-time purchase?
Yes. One-time purchase with no subscriptions or annual renewals.
Do I need the free version installed as well?
No. The Pro version is a standalone plugin that includes all free features. Install Pro only.
Does this require Gravity Forms?
Yes. Gravity Forms must be installed and activated separately. This plugin is an add-on for Gravity Forms.
Can I use this on multiple sites?
Please contact us for multi-site pricing.
What is your return policy?
We offer a 7-day return policy. See our Return Policy for full details.
Is this a good Gravity Forms datepicker alternative to the built-in date field?
Yes. Pro replaces the plain built-in date field with a fully controllable calendar picker, placeholder text, weekday blocking, and holiday blackouts — everything a real booking system needs.
How do I set the Gravity Forms date min to today?
In the field settings, choose “Current Date” as the Min Date option. This automatically disables past dates and keeps the restriction current every day, with no manual updates needed.
Can I disable only weekends?
Yes. In the Pro version, check Saturday and Sunday under Disable Week Days — users will only be able to select Monday through Friday. This is the easiest way to use Gravity Forms date picker disable days for weekend closures.
Can I block public holidays or disable past dates?
Yes. Use Disable Specific Dates and enter your holiday dates in YYYY-MM-DD format separated by a pipe | character. Combined with Min Date set to Current Date, you can fully disable past dates and blackout any day you’re unavailable.
What is the difference between Disable Dates and Active Dates?
Disable Dates blocks specific dates — all other dates remain selectable. Active Dates does the opposite — only the dates you enter are selectable, everything else is blocked. Use Disable Dates when most dates are open. Use Active Dates when only a small set of dates should be available.
Can I use this as a full Gravity Forms booking calendar?
Absolutely. Combine weekday blocking, blackout dates, and Active Dates to run a complete Gravity Forms calendar booking system for appointments, rentals, or reservations.
