…ith native inputs Remove the jquery-ui-timepicker-addon library (~1900 lines) which is no longer maintained, replacing it with WordPress core jQuery UI Datepicker combined with HTML5 native time inputs. Key changes: - Date fields now use separate date picker + time input instead of combined widget - Added REST API support via register_post_meta() for Gutenberg compatibility - JavaScript syncs field changes to Gutenberg data store for proper saving - Calendar inline editing uses HTML5 datetime-local input Existing stored data is fully backwards compatible - dates are still stored as Unix timestamps and no migration is required.
