# Default Date format

 * Hello, I would like to know where the DEFAULT date formatting comes from with
   the datepicker for this plugin. (I have the latest version)
 * I understand that the premium version allows me to change the format but my default
   format (shown in grey) shows dd-mm-yy (Australian format) and I assume that it’s
   picking it up from somewhere as it should be defaulted to mm-dd-yy (USA date 
   formatting). I have a USA website.
 * Where would the datepicker pickup this formatting from or is this formatting (
   dd-mm-yy) hardcoded into the free plugin.
 * Thanks for your help in this matter.
    Ray.

 * Also, I have changed the default WordPress Language to English (United States)
   and changed the date format in the settings > General page to USA format.
 * Still shows in the datepicker field in the checkout dd/mm/yyyy format.

 * Hello [@stryker56](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stryker56/)
 * The date picker default format comes from JQuery library, which is used by plugin
 * It is the default formatting.
