 * 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](https://wordpress.org/support/users/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](https://wordpress.org/support/users/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):
 *     ```wp-block-code
       [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.
