Problem:
How to add a date field to a CRED form which is read only?

Solution:
The Types date field is tightly integrated with the jQuery UI datepicker extension, and cannot be made read only.

But you can add a CRED generic field that is hidden which submits the date in UNIX timestamp format, and then include a readonly input in the form to display the date in human form which is discarded when the form is submitted.

Something like this:

[cred_generic_field field='wpcf-due-date' type='hidden' class='' urlparam='']
{
"required":0,
"validate_format":0,
"default":"1523521254",
"persist":1
}
[/cred_generic_field]
 
<input type="date" readonly value="12 April 2018">
