FAQ

I am getting a « Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: datetimezone »

Versions 1.2+ of the plugin requires at least version 5.x of PHP. To run the plugin with PHP4 servers, design the widget directly in mycountdown.org/getwidget, take the widget code and paste it into a WordPress « Text » widget on the sidebar. Alternatively use version 1.1 of the plugin, which does not have timezone support.

My wordpress is older than 2.8

Download version 1.3 of the countdown-clock, which is compatible with 1.5 or higher

I cannot find the event I want

Have a quick look in mycountdown.org, and search for your event, e.g. halloween, christmas, birthday, wedding, or pregnancy. Then go to « Event Type » dropdown, choose and save your selection. Then go to countdown drop-down and find your countdown, save the selection.

I want my own event

Select « My Countdown » event type and save, then choose from the « list of events » drop-down, and save again. A date and text input boxes will appear for your messages.

Can I paste the countdown onto my page on a post, rather than a sidebar

Avis

Why can't we give it zero stars?

3 septembre 2016
How desperate can someone be for clicks that they force uninterested people to go to their site? Enforced clicks make this an awful plugin – uninstalled

Styling lost in iPhone, Kindle, and other mobile devices…

8 février 2017
I’ve got the countdown displayed on http://storyandcompany.com in the content’s sidebar. On my PC desktop, it displays fine. When viewed on a Kindle or iPhone 5, there’s no styling and everything crunched together, while on an iPad Air it displays properly. Do you have any resolve for issues with mobile devices?

The plugin provides enforced click through

7 février 2017
Not happy with the enforced clickthrough to the developers website. This seems a bit sneaky as there is no way to disable it. When people hover over the event clock, the cursor changes to a a click-hand cursor. Most people will expect that to go to a page giving more details on the event. Not so with this plugin it goes straight through to the developers website who makes money off advertising. That click-through can’t be changed or turned off. C’mon, be a bit more transparent or at least make a premium option. It’s already been stated by others that this is an issue.
