Problem: The datepicker is not appearing on my CRED form when I click the input field.
Solution: Deactivate and delete Types, Views and CRED. Reinstall the plugins from source zip files downloaded from your account page on wp-types.com

Sorry I'm not able to reproduce this on a default theme like Twenty Seventeen using the following plugins and versions:
Types 2.2.13
Views 2.4
CRED 1.9
Access 2.4.1
WooCommerce 3.0.8
WooCommerce Views 2.7.3
WordPress 4.8
Please see the attached screenshot 2017.png - this is what a datepicker looks like on a basic CRED form. I'm not saying there is not a bug in our software, I'm just saying that in a bare-bones installation and a simple implementation, I'm not seeing the issue you are describing.
The most productive way for me to troubleshoot this problem will be to make a clone of your site and install it locally. If that's not possible, I may be able to troubleshoot by installing a copy of your site's theme locally. If you export your post types, custom fields, posts and CRED forms, I may be able to install them on my own environment along with your theme to replicate the problem. That would provide me at least some context.
Otherwise I'm a bit stumped. All the JavaScript is minified and obfuscated on your live site, so I can't really pick it apart and find the problems. I don't see any obvious errors in the console, and a validator doesn't show any glaring HTML errors that would indicate a problem in your content markup. If I manually initialize the datepicker by typing this in the console after the page loads:
jQuery('.js-wpt-date').datepicker();
The datepicker becomes initialized and will open and close as expected...but the style is all wrong. See the attached screenshot manual-init.png.
So there's something peculiar happening, but without seeing a clone of your site I'm not really able to help pinpoint it. Private reply enabled again.
- Update your Toolset plugins to the latest versions.
Done. didn't fix it.
This is strange, because it looks as though your CRED and Views plugins are not fully up-to-date. Perhaps there was a failure during the update process, or an update problem related to using beta versions of these plugins in the past. I'm not quite clear what happened here, but on my local copy I was able to get the datepicker to show up by deleting wp-views and CRED plugins, then reinstalling them using the original plugin zip files. Please try this. Download the plugin files from your account downloads page here on wp-types.com. Deactivate, then delete the CRED and Views plugins from your live site. Reinstall these plugins from the downloaded files. Clear all your caches and cache plugins, then retest. I'm attaching a screenshot from my local installation showing the datepicker as displayed locally.
Next, please look at your JS editor panel here:
wp-admin/post.php?post=1143&action=edit
This datepicker initialization script is not necessary for CRED and can be removed safely:
jQuery('.js-wpt-date').datepicker();
Please let me know if the updated plugins do not resolve this issue satisfactorily and I will take another look.
