Hi guys, there has been an update to the countdown plugin. In the original plugin I didn't take into account timezones. Big shout out to Tony @ Buzztouch - Magic Man for spotting it and encouraging me to figure it out. If your app is only used in one country with one timezone it was fine. The problem was with different timezones the app would countdown to 5PM in every time zone, meaning some had access to the screen earlier than others. Now when you add the time to your screen the format has changed from MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm to MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm Z where Z is the time zone in this format +0000 for GMT -0500 for EST so for now 02-14-2013 21:15 +0000 This will be updated in your cpanel If you have already released your app carry, continue to do the same but without the Z When you update in itunes connect then use the Z e.g.+0000 Hope that makes sense any questions just post

We in the 'Chamorro Standard Time' Zone (+10 GMT) salute you ;) Cheers! -- Smug

Great stuff Kittsy!

@smugwimp +1000 over an out

When I saw the topic for this on the forums, I literally thought that it was a countdown to a new plugin!

Thanks for the countdown plugin. Took about 10 minutes to make an app for my daughter who is pregnant, countdown to her big day. Made her day, and mine. Tim

@Kittsy, How can I make the countdown plugin allow me to access a document. My main goal is to add an event, give a countdown to event and instead if it saying access, it would say details, which will then take me to the events details screen in my BT CP.I do not want to lock this screen Example: Golf Outing of 6/30/2013 Button ( Details) Click and view golf outing info.

@rad doc you would need to customise the plugin. That facility isn't there. I'll try and give you some code when I'm by my mac

What if I need the countdown to just end at midnight - in every time zone? So, not timezone specific. Is there code I can remove?

Just been playing with the countdown plugin on my iPhone. How do you go about letting the user control the countdown? Surely all users will not want to have the same default time added. I am putting together a festival app and wanted the user to set the countdown to their next festival gig. Any help would be much appreciated.
