    Thanks for great plugin! Is it possible: the plugin will look for custom or changed theme files in some outside directory (the best option: in some folder inside wordpress theme). So, it will not break on plugin update. Now it is little bit annoying to always do copy changed css file after plugin update.
    For example woocommerce has similar option.
    I hope you could understand what I mean

    you are absolutely right.
    we have been playing with a couple ideas… but the best one seems to be to simply include the css in the plugin settings.

    We’ll add something to address this issue in the next release. Thank you for your feedback!

    Check for, and include if it exists, a custom.css file inside the plugin directory would be nicest – it would not be overwritten if the plugin is updated but is kept with the plugin it relates to.

    I guess Baden point is to make smth like textarea field in the plugin settting for custom css. That is also good

    Yes – that would also be good, possibly even better.

    Fresh out of the plugin oven: T(-) Countdown version 2.3.0b

    This version has many improvements, but most interesting for this thread is a new Custom Css section located in the new plugin options page under:
    Dashboard > Settings > T(-) Countdown

    All you now need to do is add your custom css to this section. To create a new style simple copy/paste one of the existing styles and be sure to follow the naming convention of:

    .<your_new_style_name>-dashboard {
    
    }

    The -dashboard class must be defined if you want the new style to show up in the widget select style drop-down input field.

    We’ll continue to test and fine-tune so any feedback on version 2.3.0b is greatly appreciated!
