In case you are having this issue when working with WordPress control panel and using a ThemeRoller generated theme - be sure that you are using 1.7.3 Version of theme, 1.8.13 will not work. (If you look closely, the element is being rendered, but .ui-helper-hidden-accessible is causing it to not be displayed.

Current WP Version: 3.1.3

I was having the same problem  and I found that in my case the cause was the datepicker div for some reason is retaining the class  ui-helper-hidden-accessible  which has the following CSS    ui-helper-hidden-accessible    position  absolute  important   clip  rect 1px 1px 1px 1px    clip  rect 1px 1px 1px 1px       I m using the google CDN hosted versions of jquery  so I couldn t modify the code or the CSS   I had also tried changing the z-index without any success   The solution that worked for me was to set the clip property for the datepicker back to its default value  auto       date   datepicker        ui-datepicker-div   css  clip    auto      Since this specifically targets the datepicker div  there s less of a chance of unintended side effects on other widgets than changing the ui-helper-hidden-accessible class as a whole

This may be helpful to someone  If you copied and pasted your form data  which has the datepicker input box  ensure you do not inadvertently copy the class  hasDatepicker   This means your input box should look like this    lt input id  dateChooser  name  dateChooser  type  text  value     gt    NOT   lt input id  dateChooser  name  dateChooser  type  text  value    class  hasDatepicker  gt    I made that mistake inadvertently  Removing the class and allowing the jQuery UI call appeared to fix it   Hope that helps someone

I ve had a similar issue with 1 7 2 versions of jQuery and jQuery UI  The popup wasn t showing up and none of the applicable suggestions above helped  What helped in my case was taking out the class  hasDatepicker  which  as the accepted answer here notes  jQuery UI datepicker will not display - full code included  is used by jquery-ui to indicate that a datepicker has already been added to the text field  Wish I found that answer sooner

This is a slightly different problem  With me the date picker would display but the css was not loading    I fixed it by  Reload the theme  go to jquery ui css  line 43 and copy the url there to edit your themeroller theme    Resave without the advanced options   Replace old files   Try not to change the urls and see if that helps as well

Try putting the z-index of your datepicker css a lot higher  eg z-index  1000   The datepicker is probably shown under your original content  I had the same problem and this helped me out

I have been similar problems  It would launch once and not a 2nd time under different tabs  I used a class instead of an id  and used the same class name everywhere  To me it appears datepicker activates once and the original initialization has to be used everywhere  One can probably code around this with the destroy api  but for me it was easy to simply use the same class everywhere

Ok  I finally found my solution   If you are using templates on your view  using Moustache js  or others      you must take into account that some of your classes can be loaded twice  or will be created later  So  you must apply this function     datepicker    datepicker    once the instance has been created

I had the same issue  the Date Picker was added successfully  and could even be found in FireBug   but was not visible  If you use FireBug to remove the class  ui-helper-hidden-accessible  from the Date Picker div  ID of   ui-datepicker-div    the Date Picker becomes visible and will work like normal   If you add the following at the very end of your   document  ready   function  it will apply this to every Date Picker on you page  and make them all work     document  ready function                         Put all of you other page setup code here                      after setting everything up  including adding all Date Pickers          apply this code to every Date Picker           ui-datepicker-div   removeClass  ui-helper-hidden-accessible            That was my initial fix  Afterwards  I tried the solution suggested above by Brian Mortenson and it both worked perfectly  and seemed less invasive than removing an entire class from the element  So I modified my code to apply his solution to the method I used  apply at the end of the document setup so that it applies to every Date Picker and does not require repeating      document  ready function                         Put all of you other page setup code here                      after setting everything up  including adding all Date Pickers          apply this code to every Date Picker           ui-datepicker-div   css  clip    auto            Hope this helps to get someone unstuck   EDIT  Fixed a code syntax error
