Thanks for the quick response, Minesh. While the solution you provided works to add the date to the database, when I go back to edit the post (via cred edit form), the data is not being displayed.

You can replicate this by logging into the website and viewing any of the "sitters" posts from the front end. You'll see the cred edit form below the post details.

The date is saved in the db and visible from the backend, but not on the frontend edit form.

Thanks in advance.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - I've added the following code to your Edit forms JS box:

jQuery(window).bind("cred_form_ready", function() {
  
              jQuery('input[name="wpcf-sitter-date[display-only]"').each(function() {
                  val = jQuery(this).val();
                  jQuery(this).datepicker("option", "minDate","-18y");
                  jQuery(this).datepicker("option", "maxDate", 0 );
                  jQuery(this).datepicker("option","yearRange","-18:+0");
                jQuery(this).val(val);
                  
             });

});

Can you confirm it works as expected?
