    In English the date format is: december 21th 2000 or 12-21-2000, but in Dutch (and other languages) it is: 21-12-2000. Now I get the message: Please enter a valid date. I use a text field because I do not want to use the UI datepicker: [text* birthday class:date]

    How can I change the date format validation? first day, second month, third year.

    Hello Jonathan,

    Currently, the jQuery Validation for Contact Form 7 plugin only supports English date validation, so formats like MM-DD-YYYY are the default. Unfortunately, this means that validations for other date formats, such as DD-MM-YYYY used in Dutch and other languages, aren’t available at this time.

    Hi Jonathan,

    Adding support for different date formats like DD-MM-YYYY is definitely on our radar. We’ll aim to include it in a future release.

    Thanks
