<p>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.</p>
<h4>USAGE</h4>
<p>When you’re done installing the plugin, just put a <code>[cntdwn todate="9 January 2019 08:00" timeoff="0"]</code> shortcode into your content. Make sure to change the <code>todate</code> parameter to your target date, and <code>timeoff</code> to the GMT offset (in hours) of the time indicated in the <code>todate</code>.</p>
<p>Anything that can be parsed by the <code>strtotime</code> php function can be used in the <code>todate</code> parameter. But in order to avoid confusion, it’s better to stick with the format as the sample above.</p>
<p>See the Frequently Asked Questions for the complete parameters available and their default values.</p>
