When a user is filling out an internal form inside Infusionsoft, and they are populating a date field, the system shows a calendar picker. However, if we place a Date type field on a web form, the contact must enter the date in a specific format, otherwise it doesn’t properly capture the information. This hack uses a simple piece of JavaScript to add a calendar picker to Date type fields on a web form or landing page.

Tracking e-mail opens is directly impacted by the recipient’s e-mail software, because tracking an open can only occur when an e-mail’s HTML is loaded.

Despite this instability in the automation confidence, automating based on e-mail opens can still be leveraged by another legacy merge field hack.

Primarily, the ability to control what the link text actually says, and what contacts see upon confirming, were both uneditable. This hack uses a legacy merge field to insert custom confirmation links into a campaign builder e-mail.
