Countdown Timer

DUK

What’s the shortcode?

In full glory:

[countdown_timer
    target_time="2012-05-05 14:03:00"
    complete_text="It's Done!"
    format= {CUSTOM HTML FORMAT - SEE BELOW}
    date_separator='<span class="d-sep">/</span>'
    time_separator='<span class="t-sep">:</span>'
    label_format="<em>%s</em>"
    timezone="America/New_York"
]

Developer Hooks

The following filters are provided to adjust both the attributes (before rendering) and the format (after rendering).

You would use them like:

add_filter( 'abt_countdown_timer__pre_render', 'my_countdown_prerender' );
function my_countdown_prerender($attributes) { ... }

add_filter( 'abt_countdown_timer__post_render', 'my_countdown_postrender' );
function my_countdown_postrender($output, $attributes) { ... }

This is how they’re used in the plugin:

// hook - adjust attributes used to render the countdown
$attributes = apply_filters( 'abt_countdown_timer__pre_render', $attributes );

// hook - add "before", "after"; alter rendered output
$formatted_time = apply_filters( 'abt_countdown_timer__post_render', $formatted_time, $attributes );

Other Options

• Title and Link – tooltip text when hovering over timer; optional link from clicking timer
• Timezones – specify a timezone for calculations (if different than WP timezone)
• Output format – HTML wrapper for result fields; uses special placeholder formats for label, separators, and time values (see [strftime][])
• Date Separator – text between date values, if used in Output Format
• Time Separator – text between time values, if used in Output Format
• Interval Label – wrapper for laber for „Year”, „Month”, etc
