Modify Countdown widget to show next event in category

[Carlos]

I like the look of the countdown widget but Id rather it be automatic, not requiring a manual selection of an event. It would be idea if it always showed the next upcoming event in a category or out of all events.. Is this possible and would you consider adding it to your pro plugin?

Hi,

Thanks for making this suggestion. I do not have any coding to provide on this, but it is something we have talked about doing.

If you think that is something you would like as a feature I encourage you to visit our User Voice Page and either upvote an existing request or make a new request there.

Thanks

can’t believe this isn’t automatic. It’s such an obvious need that 99% of your users I believe would prefer as the default functionality.

Sorry to disappoint Houman!

It’s a hard feature to include, however, because what if you have three events all happening at the same date and time? Then which one should be automatically pulled in?

I’m not saying we shouldn’t include this feature at all – just sharing some of the details of the feature that are harder to implement than it may seem.

Definitely make your voice heard on tribe.uservoice.com as Brian posted above, and stay tuned to plugin updates! New features are listed in the changelog and you never know what features might make it into upcoming release 😉

Cheers,
George
