 * some of the dates i need to add are like 93bc, 132ad etc.. the plugin won’t allow
   me to enter less than 4 characters for the year and it won’t allow me to enter‘
   ad’ or ‘bc’ after the year. is there a way i can modify it to allow this function?

 * All years must be 4 digits so you need to include leading 0s for early dates
 * 123AD -> 0123
    93AD -> 0093 4AD -> 0004
 * The plugin doesn’t support dates before 1AD
