## Description

JW Prayer Times is a powerful and lightweight WordPress plugin designed to provide
accurate prayer timings for any location in the world. It uses the Aladhan API to
deliver precise results and features an intuitive, bilingual interface suitable 
for both English and Urdu speaking users.

One of the standout features of this plugin is its **Dynamic Country Routing**. 
Unlike static plugins, JW Prayer Times allows you to create a custom page that can
dynamically display prayer times for any country in the world via clean, SEO-friendly
URLs.

#### Key Features

   via IP to show relevant timings immediately.
 * **Bilingual Support:** Full support for English and Urdu with an instant language
   switcher.
 * **Live Animated Clock:** Displays current date and time with a professional pulse-
   glow effect.
 * **Worldwide Coverage:** Access prayer times for over 190 countries and thousands
   of cities.
 * **Popular Cities Access:** Automatically fetches and displays popular cities 
   for the selected country using the CountriesNow API.
 * **SEO Optimized:** Dynamic sub-pages for countries help in ranking for regional
   prayer time searches.
 * **12-Hour Format:** All timings are displayed in a user-friendly AM/PM format.
 * **Backend Settings:** Easily set your website’s default city and country from
   the WordPress admin dashboard.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `jw-prayer-times` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or
    install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
 3. Navigate to **Settings > Prayers Settings** to configure your default location.
 4. Go to **Settings > Permalinks** and click **Save Changes** (this is required to
    enable country sub-pages).
 5. Use the shortcode `[jw_prayer_times]` on any page or post.

## FAQ

### How do I enable country pages?

After installing the plugin, you must go to **Settings > Permalinks** and click 
the **Save Changes** button. This flushes the rewrite rules and enables URLs like`/
your-page/country/pakistan/`.

### Does it support 12-hour AM/PM format?

Yes, the plugin automatically converts 24-hour API data into a readable 12-hour 
AM/PM format.

### How does auto-location work?

The plugin uses a free IP-based API to detect the user’s city. If detection fails,
it falls back to the default city set in the admin settings.
