 * Is there a way to set it to count down to a specific date (specifically, October
   1, 2015)? With my current shortcode ([tminus t=”+63 days 14 hours 45 minutes 
   18 seconds” style=”sith” omitweeks=”true”/]) it ALWAYS says 63 days, etc. every
   time you visit the page. The day before October 1 it’s going to say 63 days until
   October 1. How can I fix this to change correctly? Thanks! Or do I have to manually
   go in every single day until October 1 and subtract a day from the shortcode?

 * Okay, got it. Can’t believe how easy that was to fix. I need to trust myself 
   more! Simply changing the date from “+63 days 14 hours 45 minutes 18 seconds”
   to “10/01/2015” did the trick…who’d a’ thunk it?
 * Thanks for the awesome plugin–had tried so many other (ugly!) timers–yours rocks!
