I made some updates to my Countdown plugin. This plugin lets you easily maintain a “Dates To Remember” countdown in your sidebar.
Changes are mostly minor bugfixes, but could have a significant impact on your date display. Here’s a short list:
- Dates set like
1st sat all
will now correctly fall on the following month (as opposed to December) when the date has passed for the current month. - When Countdown displays the number of days to go until an event, it will say "Today", "1 day", or "X days", respecting plurality.
- You can specify
%nocountdown%
in an event name to display only the date and not a countdown for that event. - Code to display today's events should now correctly display all of today's events.
- Dates are converted from GMT using the WordPress GMT settings.
- The gettime() function call is now officially fixed.
%nocountdown%
flag.
You can find the new Countdown 1.1 download on the hacks page.
