You go into the Admin Area, then countdown/countup

And use the drop down values to set the date and time.

For countdown it should be a future date
For countup it should be a date in the past

Then click the Update button.

Rich, i tried your plugin when you first released them and it had errors. I have brought them back to life again to use on my theme test site but it is still failing.

Here is an example at my output;
Server: 29-04-05 11:45 - Event: 29-04-05 23:59 = Difference: 0 days 4 hours 13 mins

you can see that it is wacked. This is the countdown one I get the data from.

here is a few hour change and the results;
Server: 29-04-05 11:46 - Event: 29-04-05 18:59 = Difference: 364 days 23 hours 12 mins

Figured i would let you know.

I have the latest version and it still only shows for 04/05 events. Is there a way to use this for something in 06? I really want to place this on my site for a clan event coming up. Let me know. Thanks

Just dive into the countdown_admin.php and change

for ($i=4; $i<= 5; $i++)

( 2004 to 2005 ) to whatver you want.

ok heres a suggestion for this plugin

why not have it so you can have add extra dates/events so you can have multiple things to count to, also have the option to add a URL to a jpg image into the EVENT NAME, so you can make things look more pretty.

ohh and the ability to be able to change the name of the countdown plugin, so it displays what you want at the top of the box on the front page.
