 Looking for a plugin
I run a contest blog and am looking for a plugin where I can list contests where the deadline to enter is coming up. I haven't been able to find anything yet. I figure I will have to use custom fields or something.

This is a bit complicated. I don't know a plugin to do this, but I'll tell you a method if you can get someone to code it for you. You're right. You'll have to have a key value on a custom field which includes the deadline. Then you have to check against the current date and list them accordingly. It's a fairly easy php patch, if you can get a coder down. Cheers! |

Thanks for the suggestions. I've been going through calendar plugins and seeing if any of them would work, but haven't found anything so far.

Maybe you can find a countdown plugin that will do the job. WordPress › WordPress Plugins |

I have ended up using Countdown Timer by Andrew Ferguson. Not exactly what I wanted, but close enough to make it work. Thanks for all your input.
