What's going wrong
Many site owners report that this WordPress date picker lets visitors choose past dates or slots that are too soon, even with minimum-notice and disable-past settings turned on. The picker can show a slot earlier in the day than the lead time allows, and it sometimes marks today as selectable. Some owners also see slot intervals ignored on the front end. Owners taking bookings, including stores and clinics, end up with wrong appointments. Automated testing of booking rules on live forms would catch these leaks.
