## Beskriuwing

This is an easy way to add a daily countdown of days to a special event. Put it 
anywhere in your website that accepts shortcodes. The day count will change at midnight
according to the time zone your website is set for.
 Use the calendar dropdown to
designate the big day. You can type what you might want this shortcode to say before
the date and/or after the date. Type text that appears (instead of the number) the
day before the date (i.e. “The big day is tomorrow!”). Type what it will say on 
the day of the event (i.e. “WEDDING DAY”). Finally, choose the font you want this
to appear in. Use a headline font for a header. Use normal, bold, or italic if you
want the date to appear embedded in a sentence or paragraph. Just put the shortcode
where you want it to appear. Done.
