Adding a Date and Time picker on the Contact Form module

By default, the Contact Form module allows only the following types of fields:

  • Input Field - used for regular text such as first name/last name

  • Email Field - used for entering email address

  • Text Area - used for Messages, usually long strings of text

  • Checkboxes - used to create multiple choices where the user can select multiple choices

  • Radio Buttons - generally used in radio groups—are collections of radio buttons describing related options.

  • Select Dropdown - generally used to represent a control that provides a menu of options.

To be able to have a date and Time picker inside the Contact Form module, a 3rd party plugin will be required. The plugin used in this article is called Divi Contact Form Helper, and it can be downloaded from Elegant Themes Marketplace.
