    The plugin has a lot of options to set the format, but one is missing and I can’t create it. Do I have a chance with your help?
    The correct format in Czech is ‘l d. F’ (day space number dot space month) The most similar format is ‘full_date_nos’, but it’s missing the period after the number.
    Does it have a solution?
    Thank you.

    @peitl Thanks for the date format suggestion. This is not within the plugin’s current functionality.

    I have tried to find a list of all “full” dates in various countries, but I didn’t find anything suitable (short dates are much easier to find). Similarly, I didn’t have much luck for for localised time formats.

    I will look at either introducing the “.” version in the dropdown list or having it accept a full PHP formatted date to give more freedom (this will continue to format dates according to the local language, but in any order with a symbol or symbols).

    @peitl?I just realised that this is already possible and I even had the same date format on my development website!

    Just use the following Shortcode (with your own parameters added as needed):

    [open day_format="l d. F"]

    I will look into adding this to the predefined list as this date format is used in both the Czech Republic and Germany.

    This has been added to the list of date/day formats in version 1.62. Please update your plugin to apply this to your website.

    Fantastic news, thank you very much.
    The format was just a little thing, but it’s nice when it’s perfect!
    If I may express my opinion:
    predefined settings may make it easier for someone to use the plugin, I prefer the variability of settings and why invent something that is already “standard”. Where there is an option to set the format I would refer to the WordPress documentation on formats and be done with it. Ignorant users will expand their knowledge and others will already be using it.
