Simple Count Down

This plugin will display a count down in days until a certain date. This date can be set in the wordpress administration panel as well as the text related to it. For example:

• Our wedding will be in 14 days.
• 31 days until final exams.
• In 2 days Apple will release its iPad...

The plugin can be used in a widgetized sidebar or in your theme. On the configuration panel is also a donation link, so you can chip in to my own wedding budget if you like. The upcoming wedding of my fiancée and me was the inital reason of writing this plugin. You can read about our wedding and preparations at hasenha.us and of course you can see the plugin in action there.

1. Download the plugin archive

3. Upload archive to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
