Simple Text Only Countdown

A simple countdown shortcode plugin that displays just the text. No flash nor javascript for live timer effect, nor styles, just plain text. Perfect for in-line text-based countdown timer. Visitors need to refresh the browsers in order to update the countdown.

USAGE

When you’re done installing the plugin, just put a [cntdwn todate="9 January 2019 08:00" timeoff="0"] shortcode into your content. Make sure to change the todate parameter to your target date, and timeoff to the GMT offset (in hours) of the time indicated in the todate.

Anything that can be parsed by the strtotime php function can be used in the todate parameter. But in order to avoid confusion, it’s better to stick with the format as the sample above.

See the Frequently Asked Questions for the complete parameters available and their default values.
