How do I do it so that if the date from field wpcf-note-date has not arrived yet (it is a custom calendar field), don't show the message yet? Only show the message after that date has passed?

Like:
[wpv-conditional if="wpcf-note-date has passed"]Show this message that the date has passed[/wpv-conditional]

Hi, you can use the TODAY() function to determine if the custom field date has passed:

[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-note-date) lt 'TODAY()' )"]Note date is before today[/wpv-conditional]

If you want to display the message if the note date happens today, or has already passed, you can use the FUTURE_DAY() function:

[wpv-conditional if="( $(wpcf-note-date) lt 'FUTURE_DAY(1)' )"]Note date is today or before today[/wpv-conditional]
