 * In the widget and in the overall list display of all events the date is displayed
   month – date (march – 18) (just beneath the title). I would like the have it 
   displayed the other way round ( 18 – march).
    In the general WP settings I have
   the default settings voor date display set om j F Y. On the detail eventspage
   under eventdetail the date is displayed correctly. Any idea why the display under
   the title and in the widget is different?

 * Hi 57npha,
 * Thanks for your note. At this time The Events Calendar does not always obey the
   WordPress date settings, and that’s what you’re seeing. While the date under 
   Event Details does obey the default setting, the widget and overall list display
   do not. We are working on making The Events Calendar obey the date format completely
   so that it will be better for our international users. I appreciate your patience
   and understanding while we continue to work on that!
 * Best,
    Leah
