 * Hi,
 * The current version of plugin allows only two date formats dd-mm-yyyy and mm-
   dd-yyyy. If the date’s format is really important to your project, please contact
   us through our support page, to offer you our custom coding services:

 * Hi,
 * If you want use any of available dates formats: dd-mm-yyyy or mm-dd-yyyy, you
   only should select the date field, and modify the “Date Format” option.
 * Now, if you want display the element of datepicker in a different language, for
   example in French. You should create a new file, with the preferred name (for
   example 00_datepicker_lang.js), in the “/wp-content/plugins/calculated-fields-
   form/js/fields-public/” directory, and paste the following code in the file’s
   content:
 *  $.datepicker.regional[‘fr’] = {clearText: ‘Effacer’, clearStatus: ”,
    closeText:‘
   Fermer’, closeStatus: ‘Fermer sans modifier’, prevText: ‘<Préc’, prevStatus: ‘
   Voir le mois précédent’, nextText: ‘Suiv>’, nextStatus: ‘Voir le mois suivant’,
   currentText: ‘Courant’, currentStatus: ‘Voir le mois courant’, monthNames: [‘
   Janvier’,’Février’,’Mars’,’Avril’,’Mai’,’Juin’, ‘Juillet’,’Août’,’Septembre’,’
   Octobre’,’Novembre’,’Décembre’], monthNamesShort: [‘Jan’,’Fév’,’Mar’,’Avr’,’Mai’,’
   Jun’, ‘Jul’,’Aoû’,’Sep’,’Oct’,’Nov’,’Déc’], monthStatus: ‘Voir un autre mois’,

   Dimanche’,’Lundi’,’Mardi’,’Mercredi’,’Jeudi’,’Vendredi’,’Samedi’], dayNamesShort:[‘
   Dim’,’Lun’,’Mar’,’Mer’,’Jeu’,’Ven’,’Sam’], dayNamesMin: [‘Di’,’Lu’,’Ma’,’Me’,’
   Je’,’Ve’,’Sa’], dayStatus: ‘Utiliser DD comme premier jour de la semaine’, dateStatus:‘
   Choisir le DD, MM d’, dateFormat: ‘dd/mm/yy’, firstDay: 0, initStatus: ‘Choisir
   la date’, isRTL: false};
 *  $.datepicker.setDefaults($.datepicker.regional[‘fr’]);
 * You can create your own language file.
 * Best regards.

 * I don’t have “fields-public” in js directory.
    I made a new file with this code
   in russian, but it does not work. I’ve put it in js directory. Code: $.datepicker.

 * Hi,
 * If you don’t have the “fields-public” directory in the “/wp-content/plugins/calculated-
   fields-form/js/fields-public/” location, I recommend you to install the latest
   plugin update.
 * Best regards.
