 * The plugin supports all the [standard date formats](http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.date.php)
   of php. If the mentioned date is not in the standard php date and time format,
   the post will be assigned with the date on which it is imported.

 * Thanks. I have been through this. It seems that DD/MM/YYYY is not accepted?

 * [@sbsoft](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sbsoft/) : Yes it’s not accepted.
   DD/MM/YYYY is not a correct date format. Kindly check with the DD.MM.YYYY format
   or DD-MM-YYYY format .
