It helps standardize date input, reducing errors and ensuring consistent formatting across submissions. With options for setting minimum and maximum dates, default values, and display formats, it can be tailored to suit booking forms, event registrations, or any scenario where date selection is required.

How To Use The Avada Date Field Element
The Avada Date Field Element allows you to place a formatted date using a date picker calendar option into your Avada forms. To start, add the element to your desired Column in a Form Layout.

Element Options
Location: The edit screen within each Element. You access the Form Builder Elements when adding an Element while editing a Form in the Avada Form Builder (Forms > Form Builder, from the Avada Dashboard).
Note: Please note that the displayed options screens below show ALL the available options for the element. If you have Avada’s Option Network Dependencies turned on, you will only see options relevant to your selections, and so the options screen may look somewhat different.
