Estimated Delivery Date note settings 

Earlier, store owners could not set the text note if they wished to. However now, we have made the text note dynamic. This means that the store owners can make changes to it however they would like. With this feature, store owners can choose to either display a delivery datepicker on the checkout page or simply show the estimated date text. To set up your text block, go to Dashboard > Order Delivery Date > General Settings > Date settings > Delivery Checkout option. Click on the option ‘Text block’ in order to display the estimated delivery date on the checkout page. After choosing it, you can scroll down and click on the ‘Save Settings’ option.
