I’ve searched the forums and I am unable to find an answer to… how do I create a simple date field? I have a basic contact form and I want to add a date field to so users can enter their birth dates. This form is not connected to a database, it’s only submitting to an email. I’d like it to function the same as the email field option, where the input is automatically validated. (I’m actually surprised a date field is not one of the standard field options.) Thank you.

Hi!
You can checkout the Date Picker component. It is under User Input → Date Pickers.
Let me know if it fits your needs and good luck Wix Coding!
OK, I finally found User Input → Date Pickers, but how do I connect it to my existing contact form? I have a very simple contact form with Name and Email fields and a submit button. I want this Date Picker as a part of this email contact form (no database). Is this possible?
Are you using the regular contact form component? If so, these components currently only support adding text fields.
You do have an option of creating your own contact form with Wix Code. You could do this by building a form that sends you an e-mail with the contents. You can find an article explaining the process here:
Yes, that’s what I was trying to do. Thank you for the information.
Any way to include the Date picker info in the email notification with Wix Code? This tutorial doesn’t cover that.:Velo Tutorial: Sending an Email on Form Submission | Help Center | Wix.com
I’d like to make a text field where the user can only write numbers and it automatically fills the / to separate day, month and year. Like MM/DD/YYYY. Because, to be honest, the calendar date field picker is really terrible and many users already gave me negative feedback about it.
Please open your own post, instead of bumping up old ones.
Yes there is a SOLUTION for you! See you in your own post

Back to your question: How to generate an INPUT-FIELD where you can just type in a → DATE ← and you get all its elementary data?
