Countdown Timer in signature
 

Original Modification by Hellcat

Previous versions:
vB3.5.x "User Countdown Timer".
vB3.6.x "User Countdown Timer".

I have taken the original modification and simply edited templates to get it working with vB3.7.x

Note: I did not write the original modification so support of this release may be limited.

This little AddOn gives your users the option to show a custom countdown timer at the bottom of their signature.

Features:

• Fully configurable via UserCP (see screenshot)
• BB-Code can be used for eventname and overmessage
• fully phrased/templated, nothing hardcoded and so fully customizable
• leading days or hours with a value of "0" are not shown
  (so it shows "42minutes" rather then "0days 0hours 42minutes")

Installation:
Painless:

• Upload "plugins_usercountd.php" to ".../forum/includes"
• Upload "bitfield_hc_countdown.xml" to ".../forum/includes/xml"
• Import the product .XML

You may also need to rebuild your languages after the install.
This can be done by going to:
AdminCP - Laguages & Phrases -> Language Manager -> Rebuild all languages

DONE
That's it.
No template edits, no nothing


Usergroup permission:
Go to -> AdminCP -> Usergroups -> Usergroup Manager -> User Countdown Permissions


Members Usage:
Go into your UserCP -> Edit Options
On the very bottom you will find the options for the Countdown Timer.
Set it to whatever you like, if "Enable" is set to "ON" the timer will automatically be shown on the bottom of your sig, set to "OFF" will hide/disable the time display.

Please MARK AS INSTALLED & NOMINATE FOR MOTM :p

Enjoy. :)

Nice Complete mod!

Thanks :p

Seems to be a problem with the text in the admin and user options. It is also not showing up as my sig even after settings have been set. Using vB 3.7.1 pl1

Try going to:

AdminCP - Laguages & Phrases -> Language Manager -> Rebuild all languages

See if that works.

That did the trick. Working fine now. Thanks. Had a request for countdown timers just a few days ago on our forum. This fits that need perfectly.

Okay :up:

Could you please Mark as Installed

Done!

interesting tiny hack ... :)
