I am trying to create a form with the default datepicker provided by Toolset.

hidden link

In Chrome and Internet Explorer, it works fine.

In Brave nothing seems to happen. The console says:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<', "<!DOCTYPE "... is not valid JSON

Hi there

I just installed the Brave browser to test this, but couldn't reproduce the problem.

I have a form with a date field, and was able to select a date via the datepicker without problem (screenshot).

As it doesn't happen with a vanilla install, and doesn't happen with your other browsers, I expect the problem relates to your specific configuration for the Brave browser.

Thank you, I found the code that caused the datepicker not to work. I tried to block the WordPress dashboard for subscribers with this code:

add_action('admin_init', 'disable_dashboard');
function disable_dashboard() {
if (current_user_can('subscriber') && is_admin()) {
wp_redirect(home_url());
exit;
}
}
