 * Are you getting a validation error? If so, I think it may be the date-format 
   you’ve chosen that’s throwing it. Try `date-format:dd-mm-yy` (i.e. not dd/mm/
   yy). That worked for me – though this isn’t the ideal date format for me, I wanted‘
   D, dd M yy’ and can’t get that to work at all.
 * It seems that most of the ‘standard’ formats stop the date field from appearing
   on the form or, if the datepicker does pop-up and a date is selected, even though
   it appears in the field, ContactForm 7 can’t validate it.

 * The same for me, if I change the default value of date format from mm/dd/yy to
   dd/mm/yy or M/dd/yy or dd/M/y it picks and shows the date correctly on form, 
   but when you submit you get an “invalid date value” error message. It works only
   with the default date-format.

 * damn it. Bob, marcoblg it is not working for me 🙁 I am post on main forum in
   datepicker forum but they said I’ve got old version of jquery :
    Source from 
   my page: `<script type='text/javascript' src='https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/
   libs/jquery/1.4.4/jquery.min.js?ver=3.5'></script>` But this set plugin Maps 
   Maker I guess and I am trying force set jquery to newest like this:
 *     ```
       /**
       *	Use latest jQuery release
       */
       if( !is_admin() ){
       	wp_deregister_script('jquery');
       	wp_register_script('jquery', ("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"), false, '');
       	wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
       }
       ```
   
 * But It doesn’t work for me.

 * Hi Morarz, there’s a post [here](http://bavotasan.com/2010/force-wordpress-use-latest-version-jquery/)
   that shows how to force the latest version of jquery to load.
 * Further down the comments it also recommends using the wp_enqueue_script functino
   which I see you’re including.
 * Hope this helps you but I’m not convinced this is the source of MY problems. 
   Using the equivalent of firebug for Chrome I’m seeing that ContactForm 7 or my
   theme (not sure which) is loading jquery 1.9.2 !!
 * Maybe something has changed in this recent version of jQuery that is breaking
   contactform 7 OR the datepicker plugin

 * It works fine for me with WP version 3.5. Although, I found the form would would
   submit fine on the site, but the date was not appearing in the sent email. The
   reason was the watermark in the date field.
 * Instead of:
 * [date date-745 date-format:dd/mm/yy watermark “Whatever your placeholder text
   is”]
 * I used:
 * [date date-745 date-format:dd/mm/yy placeholder=”Whatever your placeholder text
   is”]
 * replacing watermark with placeholder=
 * Hope this helps someone having the same issue.

 * Thank you Bob, it works dd-mm-yy but not with other format like dd-M-yy or else.
   It’s ok anyway, better than nothing.
    Cheer!

 * I’m here just to confirm that pma4lifes’ solution with WordPress v3.5 and Contact
   Form 7 v3.3.3 fixed the issue.
 * As pma4life stated above:
 * Instead of:
    `[date date-745 date-format:dd/mm/yy watermark "Whatever your placeholder
   text is"]` Use: `[date date-745 date-format:dd/mm/yy placeholder="Whatever your
   placeholder text is"]`
