I purchased your plugin for a launch party tonight. And your plugin countdown clock disappears when you get within 5 hours of the countdown time. What is wrong that it is doing that?
By the time you read this, my event will be over and done with. I am very disappointed that this didn’t work properly.
Hi ShoutCloud,
I so sorry that you are disappointed with the plugin. I have checked it and it works fine. I have set the countdown to 2, 3, 5 and 6 hours and the countdown works fine. I don’t know what happened.
Regards
Okay… I figured it out.
My server’s real time was actually 5 hours ahead of my wordpress time. I went into your code and made this change in order for it to work again:
/themes/theme_functions.php
//$today = date('Y-m-d h:i:s a'); $now = date('Y-m-d H:i:s a', strtotime("-5 hours")); if (strtotime($date) > strtotime($now)){ //if (strtotime($date) > strtotime($today)){I definitely think that you should make this a setting inside of your admin for users that wouldn’t know how to do this. I also think that you should inspect the server time and compare it to the wordpress time and automatically adjust that admin setting for your user.
Because I figured this out myself, my event was great. Please strongly consider incorporating this into your next release.
Thanks…
