Proposal: show Delivery datepicker values on Shopping Cart page

Squarespace Datepicker is a versatile plugin that integrates a date picker into Squarespace forms, including Custom Product forms. This allows users to easily select dates via a calendar UI, minimizing errors and facilitating better communication with shop owners. This post outlines a proposal to display the selected datepicker values on Shopping cart page line items, enhancing the shopping experience.

Why Do We Need a Date Value on Each Line Item?

Displaying date values on cart page line items is essential for several reasons:

Clarity: Provides clear information about selected delivery or event dates for each product.
Convenience: Allows customers to verify and adjust their selected dates if needed.

How to Enable the Feature

The feature should be available as a setting on datepicker rule, where user can toggle to enable the date values on Shopping cart page.

How the Values Will Be Displayed

The datepicker values will be displayed on the cart page line items as follows:

Location: Below the product title on each cart line item.
Format: The display will include the datepicker field's title and the actual selected date value.

Use Case 2: When User Edits the Cart

Update Values: After a user edits the product form details, the date values will be updated to reflect the latest changes.

Conclusion

This proposal aims to enhance the user experience on Squarespace sites by integrating datepicker values into the cart page line items. This feature will provide customers with clear, accurate information about their selected dates, improving communication and reducing errors.
