This plugin will display a countdown timer that counts down towards your next scheduled post.<\/p>\n\n

The countdown to your next post can be added as a widget, manually to your sidebar, or into any post or page.<\/p>\n\n

This plugin is perfect for people who write posts in advance and schedule them to be posted at a later time. This plugin will automatically search the wordpress database for the next scheduled post and display a countdown so your readers know exactly when it will be posted.<\/p>\n\n\n

Download and move \"Countdown to Next Post\" into your Wordpress plugins directory.<\/p>\n\n

Activate this plugin on your admin panel.<\/p>\n\n

Widget<\/h4>\n\n

You can activate this plugin as a sidebar widget.<\/p>\n\n

Manually Insert into Sidebar<\/h4>\n\n

Instead of using the widget, you can also manually add the following code into your sidebar.php file:<\/p>\n\n

<li>\n<h2>Next Post<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<?php function_exists('scott_timer')?scott_timer():NULL; ?>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li><li id='countdown'><h2>Countdown:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
Insert into a page or post<\/h4>\n\n
If you want to insert the \"Countdown to Next Post\" into a page or post, you can add the following shortcode into the HTML editor for a post or page.<\/p>\n\n
[countdown_to_next_post]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n
\n
I am not getting a countdown. All I see is \"No scheduled Posts\".<\/dt>\n
For this plugin to create a countdown timer there needs to be atleast one post scheduled to be posted at a future time. If you do not have any posts scheduled then you will not see a countdown because there is nothing to countdown to. I would suggest scheduling a test post so you can play around with the plugin and get the formatting how you want it.<\/p><\/dd>\n
How do I schedule a post to be posted at a later time?<\/dt>\n
When you have completed writing a post, you have the option of posting it right away or scheduling it to post at a later time. You can do this by clicking on the \"edit\" link beside \"Publish immediately\" which is just above the save and publish buttons.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>","raw_excerpt":"This plugin will display a countdown timer that counts down towards your next scheduled post.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin\/6171","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/plugin"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6171"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wporg\/v1\/users\/mullis"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6171"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"plugin_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_section?post=6171"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_tags?post=6171"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_category?post=6171"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_contributors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_contributors?post=6171"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_business_model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scn.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_business_model?post=6171"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
