I've installed on 4.1.4 and 4.1.5 and cannot re-produce this error, can you tell me which version of VB you have and when the error is coming up?
Thanks

Is the error coming up whilst installing or once the mod is installed and all settings input?
EDIT: Can you also try disabling all your other mods and trying it out as i cannot re-produce that error at all.

Is there a way you could make this in to a widget and be able to disable it on the Forumhome ? so that you could have a countdown in a widget and maybe a changable image background ?
Thanks in advance................Paul

It's something i could do yes, will take a look over it when i get some time. By widget do you mean sidebar block yeh?
before your plugin and after your plugin.
Obviously there is a clash with another mod you have, can you try disabling them all except this one and then enable them 1 by 1, this will indicate which one is causing the clash.

The widgets are the blocks on the vBulletin CMS https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/content.php/151-How-To-CMS

Works great on 4.1.5. Make sure you check overwrite when you're uploading the product (like it says) or it will not show up.
Thanks.

Thanks! Just what I needed and it works really well. Previously I had the tedious job of modifying templates with dates every week the rugby league team my forum is about played (counting down till their next game). This will make it heaps easier.
My only suggestion would be the ability to add text after the countdown - eg. 3 weeks, 2 days, UNTIL ... whatever. :)

It works, but needs some enhancements:
- the words (Days, Hours, Minutes, Seconds) should be phrases so we can translate.
- We want it in sidebar block

Just standard up load XML file and then In settings make sure you set your Dates and time.
I can only think it would run into an issue if there is many changes to the Forum home template but Even on my Custom styles I have no Issues at all.
If you need me to pop in and take a look your more then welcome to pm me Details Sir.

Is there a way to have more than one event counting down? Or once an event starts, the next one begins? I run poker tournaments every day and have been looking for a countdown timer.
