End-User Options - Countdown Timer in signature

This is a port of my vB3.5.x "User Countdown Timer".
I had to change some parts of the install code to make it work with vB3.6, and here we go:

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"
• Import the product .XML

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


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 "Yes" the timer will automatically be shown on the bottom of your sig, set to "No" will hide/disable the time display



Have fun

Just a suggestion, but try this so you don't have to keep changing the year every year:

for ( $i = date("Y"); $i <= 2020; $i++

I'm still waiting for an answer from Feb

I have tried all the things here but am still getting the same as Fireproof;1259800 with the little drop down bits. Any ideas?! I have changed everything apart from

why bring a mod out and never come back online, leave members in the lurch?

why is this mod still available for download?

Nice Hack once I saw the phrase's thing. Clicked install.

make sure you upload all the files correctly! that is the problem. it's a tricky mod. and yes, try to install and then reinstall, and it'll work.

installed, uninstalled and once more for luck... STILL couldn't get it to work on a 3.6.7 board.
Ah well, it was worth a try
