Countdown plugin
-
Hey!
I want to include a countdown in my blog. Not with the widgets, because I want to personalize it, but in a post, so I can write something beneath it, as well. I read something about certain plugins you can download, but it does not seem to function.
I need it for the post, which you can find on my blog. Choose ‘Home’ and then the post ‘Countdown.’
Thanks for your help!The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Blogger installed plugin capability does not exist on WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.
For that type of functionality you’d need a self-hosted WordPress.ORG software install running on a paid web hosting service.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/The milestone widget displays number of days only if the interval is less than one month, otherwise it displays number of months.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/milestone-widget/Upcoming Events is a widget and a shortcode. It allows you to use an iCalendar link to display a list of events on your WordPress.com site.

Also note that there is no Staff support for any workarounds.A self-hosted WordPress site might be right for you. WordPress.org offers free software that you can install on a web server. You can upload and install themes and plugins, run JavaScript widgtets, run ads, conduct ecommerce and edit the database. Learn about the differences here. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
