Always show datepicker in Contact Form 7

I really need help with this.

I have a theme and a plugin that doesnt allow the datepicker of ANY form to show when you click the field. Since this would be very complicated to fix, searching the theme and plugin for incompatibilities, I want for the http://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-datepicker/ to always show the datepicker, not only when you click the field.

I suppose this is pretty simple but I can't figure it out.

Thank you

Just include the term “inline” in the shortcode.

[date inline]

I would suggest you download jQuery UI Datepicker, upload jquery-ui.css and jquery-ui.js to your wp theme and add this script to your footer or header -

<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
    $('.datepicker').datepicker();
});
</script>

After that, go to CF7, generate a text-field and assign the class "datepicker". You will now have a working datepicker in your contact form that works in chrome, ie, ff, and safari. If you still want to store the selected date in some alternative input field, there is "altField" option with target field selector as an argument:

$('.datepicker').datepicker({altField: '#input_date'});
