* The HTML source shows that Jquery UI datepicker is present, but no date appears.
Console shows no errors. I’m using version 1.2.8. on my website: [http://www.kileleshwa.com/property/arcadia-valley-kileleshwa](http://www.kileleshwa.com/property/arcadia-valley-kileleshwa)
* The form is built in a template for [Pods pages](http://webdesignforidiots.net/2013/04/pods-pages-and-templates-and-more-pages-oh-my/).
* What could be the issue?

* You are using jQuery datepicker independently as well, i found datepicker script
other than my plugin. Please use one at a time, no need to include date picker
JS file and script again and again.
* Have a look here

* What’s funny is that when I deactivate the plugin, all presence of jQuery datepicker
disappears (both the independent and your’s). Could it be a WP 4.7 thing? Or
another plugin detecting the use of function datepicker()?

* I’ve been looking though your plugin and found:
* ```
wp_enqueue_script(
'wpdp-scripts2',
plugins_url('js/scripts-front.js', dirname(__FILE__)),
array('jquery', 'jquery-ui-datepicker')
);
```
* Doesn’t this function invoke WordPress’ jQuery datepicker as shown in

* Hi Elzix,
* Try this on a plane WordPress installation. There is some plugin is conflicting
with WP Datepicker plugin.
* Thanks,

* Well, when your right, your right.. I tried using type=”date” and it worked..
then I tried deactivating the plugin and was still working.. then I tried removing
all the classes and it’s still working.. There must be some unknown conflict,
but at least it works for me..

* Haha.. It was Chrome filling in the blank type=”date” for me.. Solution doesn’t
work on Firefox.. Back to the drawing board..

* OK, I think I have fixed it..
* The input that **did not** work was:
`` With plugin
settings pointing to `$('.datepicker').datepicker();`
* The input that works is:
`` With plugin settings pointing to `$('#datefrom').datepicker();`

* I guess that your website was caching the files and even after deactivating the
plugin, you were having the files enqueued. Normally whenever you encounter such
compatibility issues so must try with default WordPress installation with twenty
series. For example, twentyseventeen is the latest one. What i see in your implementation,“
datepicker” and “hasDatepicker” classes were already applied to the input field.
It was not a mistake or conflict. It was due to another script involved, did
you notice in my first reply? Later you removed the other script i think and
tried it with the ID “#datefrom”. I will again mention that whenever any plugin
is not working in combination so try it alone in default settings environment.
Accept my apology for late reply due to busy schedule.
* Thanks,
Fahad
