I was able to successfully change the datepicker’s strings to a different locale for a single page using the switch_to_locale() function introduced in WordPress v4.7. switch_to_locale() will modify the global $wp_locale variable which is used by wp_localize_jquery_ui_datepicker(). Changing the locale with the locale filter alone does not overwrite $wp_locale. /** * Use switch_to_locale() on a … Read more

Given that all of the libraries you need for the datepicker are bundled with WordPress and are registered with all of the appropriate dependencies, all you really need to do is: function enqueue_my_scripts_wpse_97533() { wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery-ui-datepicker’); } add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’,’enqueue_my_scripts_wpse_97533′); If you then look at the source of the page you will see that jQuery, jQuery-UI, and jQuery-UI-Datepicker … Read more

The code then will be: function rr_scripts() { wp_enqueue_script( ‘jquery’ ); wp_enqueue_script( ‘jquery-ui-datepicker’, array( ‘jquery’ ) ); wp_register_style( ‘bootstrap_css’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/assets/css/bootstrap.min.css’ ); wp_enqueue_style( ‘bootstrap_css’ ); // I’m using Twitter Bootstrap as CSS(if it matters) wp_register_style(‘jquery-ui’, ‘http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8/themes/base/jquery-ui.css’); wp_enqueue_style( … Read more

That’s why when you add [DataType(DataType.Date)], the input generated will be a date picker, but if you add [DataType(DataType.DateTime)], the input will be of type datetime, thus why you don’t get any picker displayed.

In fact, you can use a datepicker by simply adding the date value into the type attribute of your inputs: In some browsers like Chrome and Microsoft Edge (not in Firefox), you can click on the icon within the input to display the date picker. Icons appear only when you mouse is over the input. … Read more
