Date [date* date-format:dd_mm_yy date- 182]
* This works fine from a mobile device, but from a desktop I dont seem to be able to get the right date format. I get ‘Validation errors occurred. Please confirm the fields and submit it again’ with a yellow border but no fields are highlighted as in error. * What format should be input from a desktop ? * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/contact-form-7/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/contact-form-7/) Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) * Thread Starter [Dillx](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dillx/) * (@dillx) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contact-7-date-format/#post-3644499) * If I useDate [date* date-182]
instead then the date field shows up as invalid via the desktop but I cant find a valid date format to enter. From a mobile device it works but the date is not displayed in the resultant email, just the name of the date field (date-182) * [danielnichols](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielnichols/) * (@danielnichols) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contact-7-date-format/#post-3644734) * i’m using dd/mm/yyyy with date picker. * works fine on pc, no datepicker on mobile device. * any help is appreciated! thanks. * [danielnichols](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielnichols/) * (@danielnichols) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contact-7-date-format/#post-3644749) * still no further forward with this. * does anyone have any idea how to change the display of a date field in the email from yyyy/mm/dd to dd/mm/yyyy? * test.nichols.org.uk * thanks! * [danielnichols](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielnichols/) * (@danielnichols) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contact-7-date-format/#post-3644751) * solved using the CF7 datepicker plugin. * Thread Starter [Dillx](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dillx/) * (@dillx) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contact-7-date-format/#post-3644785) * The Datepicker is not a great interface on a mobile, works great for desktop. * But why doesnt the contact 7 date work on desktop ?
