Hello hellodav,
Can you let me know where exactly you are seeing the date field? Any screenshot of the complete page would be helpful.

I need the format dd/mm/yyyy
Hey hellodav,
The format used is not something that our plugin controls but is something controlled by your web browser. For e.g. in Chrome for Windows, I see Date/Month & Year (please see https://nimbus.everhelper.me/client/notes/share/263118/fQzaTbpalLGgEGvkElc68zyfXO3PRusy/).
I regret that I have not been much help. I’ll keep this ticket open in case my colleagues or anyone else can provide a solution.
and how do to change dd/mm/yyyy in all browsers , operating systems , tablets and smartphones?
thanks!
Hey there,
Sorry for the late reply but this took some time for us to properly look into. Right now, the plugin will try to use the default HTML5 datepicker which is included in modern browsers (especially on mobile).
However, not all browsers support this datepicker field yet. Furthermore, there is no way to set a custom date format using the default HTML5 datepicker.
We are currently working on better date field support in the plugin, which will render the same date picker across all browsers & devices. As we want to do this right, this is not something we can add to the plugin quickly though.
For now, there are two things you can do.
1) You can use the default HTML5 date-field (as the plugin is doing now) which will always render the date field in a format that should be accepted by the browser & language your visitor is using.
2) Replace the date-field with a regular text field and set a placeholder and pattern value, so only certain inputs are accepted.
Example
<input type="text" name="MAILCHIMPFIELD" placeholder="DD/MM/YYYY" pattern="^[0-9]{2}\/[0-9]{2}\/[0-9]{4}$" />
The above example will render a text field which will only accept DD/MM/YYYY formatted inputs. To get this to work with the plugin, make sure to replace MAILCHIMPFIELD with the actual name of your MailChimp field.
Does that help? If not, let me know!
