Can you post a screen shot of your widget settings? I’d like to test it and take a look.

How do I post an image here? :p
No worries on the the code… I see it, thanks! BTW, what is the “widget logic” plugin you’re using? It looks pretty cool, and I’ve had people ask about functionality like that. Would like to be able to recommend something.
Yeah… it’s pretty cool. It’s good for making some widgets just now show during certain times of the day.
Here is a link: https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/
Any idea why the plugin is acting a little screwy?
On my system it looks like the dates are being calculated incorrectly when I use “today” as the event date. Looks to be something in get_gmt_from_date() that I may be doing incorrectly. Let me look into it further and get back to you.
Thanks! If there is another option to type in to make the countdown daily, just let me know.
Can I select more than one day of the week? Can I put something like Monday 20:00, Tuesday 20:00, Wednesday 20:00 ?
Sorry, none yet. I should have a chance to look later this week. I may have to re-think the way it works. Seems like WordPress is now using UTC for all internal timestamps, which makes ‘today’ look like tomorrow depending on time & timezone (10PM today for me looks like 4AM tomorrow b/c I’m -6hrs).
burkemedia,
Sorry for the delay, I switched to using DateTime object which should respect timezone… can you test this version before I release it and give feedback?
