 * Hi,
 * Thank you for reporting this!
 * Could you please check if the date format you’ve entered in the backend is correct?
   
   The plugin uses Moment.js format, so it’s important to follow that structure.
 * If possible, could you share a screenshot of the format you’ve configured in 
   the backend? That’ll help us troubleshoot the issue.

   the jquery.datetimepicker.[min|full].js is changed and introduced this issue.
   
   When running “jQuery.datetimepicker.setLocale” the new script will re-initialize
   the dateformatter if the locale is not ‘en’. This explains why not everyone is
   having this issue.
 * The solution is to move setLocale in front of setDateFormatter in the /js/scripts.
   js script.

 * [@jbzenner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jbzenner/) Please update the 
   plugin to the latest version — this should resolve the issue.
 * [@sowmedia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sowmedia/) Thanks a lot for identifying
   the root cause!
