 * When choosing a Date Format in Settings, the d Mon Y shows as 15 July 2005 which
   is actually d F Y.

 * Hello,
   Thank you for reporting this.We just did some testing and we can confirm
   that this is just an error in the displayed ‘preview’ of the Date Format,you 
   are correct – for the “d **Mon **Y” it should say a preview as “15 **Jul **2005″
   rather than the full month as it is now “15 **July **2005″.But the functionality
   works perfectly, we made a dummy Excel file with some dates with full Month Names
   like “d **F **Y” ,and if we choose “d **Mon **Y” in the main Plugin settings 
   and the Date Setting for the Column Format,the Table renders it as “d **Mon **
   Y” in the actual cells, as it should.Some screenshots :

 * Our developers will just fix/edit that ‘date preview’ for the main Plugin settings
   of Date Format and the Column Settings/Date Format for the “d Mon Y” , to set
   it as “15 Jul 2005”,
   it will be added to the next Update.Thank you again for 
   reporting this.Let us know if you have any additional questions about this matter.
