\n","faq":"\n

What’s the shortcode?

In full glory:

[countdown_timer\n    target_time=\"2012-05-05 14:03:00\"\n    complete_text=\"It's Done!\"\n    format= {CUSTOM HTML FORMAT - SEE BELOW}\n    date_separator='<span class=\"d-sep\">/</span>'\n    time_separator='<span class=\"t-sep\">:</span>'\n    label_format=\"<em>%s</em>\"\n    timezone=\"America/New_York\"\n]\n

Developer Hooks

The following filters are provided to adjust both the attributes (before rendering) and the format (after rendering).

You would use them like:

add_filter( 'abt_countdown_timer__pre_render', 'my_countdown_prerender' );\nfunction my_countdown_prerender($attributes) { ... }\n\nadd_filter( 'abt_countdown_timer__post_render', 'my_countdown_postrender' );\nfunction my_countdown_postrender($output, $attributes) { ... }\n

This is how they’re used in the plugin:

// hook - adjust attributes used to render the countdown\n$attributes = apply_filters( 'abt_countdown_timer__pre_render', $attributes );\n\n// hook - add \"before\", \"after\"; alter rendered output\n$formatted_time = apply_filters( 'abt_countdown_timer__post_render', $formatted_time, $attributes );\n

Other Options

Title and Link – tooltip text when hovering over timer; optional link from clicking timer
Timezones – specify a timezone for calculations (if different than WP timezone)
Output format – HTML wrapper for result fields; uses special placeholder formats for label, separators, and time values (see [strftime][])
Date Separator – text between date values, if used in Output Format
Time Separator – text between time values, if used in Output Format
Interval Label – wrapper for laber for “Year”, “Month”, etc
