 * For the post metadata, the date is being displayed as “day” “month” “year” no
   matter what setting I switch to.
 * I think one of the more recent customizr updates may be the cause, as it was 
   displaying the date correctly not that long ago. No other changes have been made
   to the website.
 * I’m trying to use the custom format, “l, F j, Y” which should display as “Wednesday,
   April 8, 2015”. Even using of the other default options doesn’t work however.
 * Thanks for the help

 * That’s the “short” version when you show metas design as just text. If you switch
   to buttons and text your custom format will be used.
    Apperance -> Customize -
