 * Hi,
    I have created a closing price AREA chart, and on the x-axis, its shows 
   all the dates for the closing price, But I need to remove the dates and just 
   show the start of the month. How can I hide the X-Asis dates and show only the
   month names at the start of the month? Current/Default chart [https://imgur.com/a/LUfDuOT](https://imgur.com/a/LUfDuOT)

 * Hello there.
 * Something like this can’t be achieved with the plugin’s built-in features, and
   can only be achieved using custom wpDataChart callbacks.
 * Every chart exposes several options that customize its look and feel. Charts 
   usually support custom options appropriate to that visualization. wpDataChart
   callbacks allow adding options that are available in Google Charts API, Highcharts
   API, and Chart.js API.
 * Please note that using hooks or wpDataTable and wpDataChart callbacks requires
   a certain level of programming skills and included support refers only to advice.
 * Kind regards
