Enable Date Picker to show calendar inline

    I am trying to get the date picker to show the calendar above the field, instead of having to click the little calendar option to see the available dates. I would be ok if we even had to place a div above the form that just had the calendars appended to it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    It is possible to do this. Assuming you are using v4.1, you can edit your "includes/view-functions.php" file, search around line 1219 for this code:

    $('#element_{$element->id}_datepick').datepick({

    change it to become:

    $('#element_{$element->id}_datepick_span').datepick({

    Then search around line 1264 for this code:

    <input type="hidden" value="" name="element_{$element->id}_datepick" id="element_{$element->id}_datepick">

    below that line, add this code:

    <span id="element_{$element->id}_datepick_span" class="inlinePicker"></span>

    That should display the calendar inline, without the need to click the calendar icon.

    If I make this change, I will need to do it again after future updates, correct?

    Yes, I'm afraid you'll need to do it again.
