 * You can change the format in the settings for the WP Dashboard > settings > general,
   and remove the time option if have the option in settings time format. That is
   as close as I’ve been able to get so far now it reads
    “December 9, 2020 @” I’m
   still working on it, I’ll let you know if I find a solution. Anyone else?
 * UPDATE:
    I had to deactivate the plug in then edit it then reactivate it to make
   this work
 * Dashboard > plugins > plugin editor | select the plugin | around line 45 there
   is an option for separator (it appears 3 times depending on how you have your
   display set up you may only need to edit one of the occurrences. z honestly I
   wasn’t sure so I removed all 3 and replaced them with the character space ” “.
 * The “ctrl F” | “separator” search function did not work for me but it is right
   around line 45 then down 8-12 lines then down another 8-12 lines. Hope this helps
   someone
