- Date from time separating character – When compiling the date, this string separates the date from the time and defaults to a single space.
- Time Separating character – When compiling the date, this character separates the start and end times if the event starts and finishes on the same day and defaults to a single dash with a space on both sides.
- Date Separating character – When compiling the date, this character separates the start and end dates if the event starts and finishes on different days and defaults to a double dash with a space on both sides.
- Date format – If the date mark-up field is left empty, when compiling the date, this is how you’d like your date to be formatted. This should be a string represetation of the date according to PHP/Wordpress’ date formatting parameters. i.e. “l F j, Y”. See here.

This setting overrides the Date format setting.
