Good morning,
I am looking for help on requiring a date to be selected in the cart page before passing the checkout button. I have entered the codes I have found but it doesnt seem to work. The help centre told me I need a custom code but I still do not understand why as there is codes provided for this function … what I am missing? Has anyone dealt with this?
Thank you
Shannon
Hello! I think we will need a little more information to figure out what’s missing.
You said you have written code for this function. Could you post the code and any relevant screenshots so anyone viewing this post and see and help you problem solve?
Hi Amanda,
Thank you for answering me 
really appreciate it ive been trying to figure this out for weeks
I see. So this implementation won’t work without creating a completely custom checkout page - meaning you will design and code it from scratch. I have taken a look through the Wix-Stores API docs and I"m not seeing a way to intercept the checkout process from the default checkout page.
There is a feature request to allow customization to this page through code which has made it through the voting stage but has not yet through priority to the dev team so it may still be a bit
Some ideas for you to think about:
In the articles for Wix Stores there are ways to turn off/on custom fields and make them mandatory from the dashboard with no code. There is not a specific date field, but take a look and see if you think anything else will work for you.
Another idea could be that you could customize the email confirmation to your customer and let them know that they will need to provide an event date to secure their order and provide a link for them to do so. Also no code
The last idea, is that you would have to design and develop the checkout experience yourself. If you are not used to writing code this will be the most difficult route but would give you the most control over what the pages look like. If you want to do this but do not feel you are able to attempt it, you can hire a Velo developer through the Marketplace
Let me know what you think.
Thank you so much Amanda
Hi Amanda sorry to bug you again. One of your suggestions did work. I am wondering how I can change delivery method to more than 30 days… like even a year out?
Hello! Unfortunately I am more suited for providing code suggestions and am not familiar with this menu. I think there is a way to not show that to the customer though. I hate to send you back to where you came from, but this question will be better answered by customer care.
No worries, thanks anyways! Have a great day
