Hi @theshae

You should be able to do it by using JavaScript code to add a placeholder . To add the JavaScript code, you can use the acf/input/admin_footer hook. Here’s an example of the code:

function my_acf_add_datepicker_placeholder() {
    ?>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    (function($){
        
        // only do this after the assets are fully loaded
        acf.add_action('load', function( $el ){
    
            // add the placeholder
           $(".acf-date-time-picker input.hasDatepicker").attr( "placeholder", "enter date here" ); 
            
        });

    })(jQuery);
    </script>
    <?php
}

add_action('acf/input/admin_footer', 'my_acf_add_datepicker_placeholder');

I hope this helps 🙂
