 * Hello,
 * Great plugin! I like that all of your plugins are lightweight. The prefix “Simple”
   is quite appropriate. Some time ago [another user inquired](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/german-date-format-settings/?view=all)
   about setting the date format to German. My first observation when viewing this
   plugin is that users are limited to the four formats available. Might I suggest
   you enable an option to use the date format set on the WordPress settings page?
   Since WordPress allows users to specify a custom format, this could provide the
   solution without the need to understand how to manually edit the code in your
   plugin file, which is not a good idea since the changes will revert when the 
   plugin updates. I think you could probably do the same for time format. Just 
   name the options “WordPress Default”.
