    Oh, I'm sorry....It IS showing the days =) Right now it says Coming Soon!! Count Down: -2 Days!

    What they want to know is an exact TIME (ie: 8am CST) or whatever so they can be in the store waiting for it to go live AT THAT TIME and purchase it! LOL!

    Midnight ... your server time ... you can manually type that in as it really isn't a calculation ...

    So there isn't any way to configure it to change that time? I got an email from one gal saying she didn't care if it was midnight or not, she'd be there waiting....but still.....I'd like to make it more easily available for as many people as possible

    Code:
          $return_button = 'Coming Soon!!<br />Count Down to Midnight in: ' . date_diff($button_check->fields['products_date_available'], date('Y-m-d H:i:s', time())) . ' Days!';

    So instead of the Count Down to Midnight in:, could I put Count Down to 8:00am in: or something like that?

    It is just text ... you can make it:
    Fred is bringing it at 7:03am ...

    But it comes at midnight based on Server time ...

    no Fred's here!

    Ok, just to make sure I'm understanding correctly....I can put whatever I want there, BUT it will go live at 12 midnight no matter what. I can't change THAT?

    Like, I can't make it become available at 8am CST on the 17th, instead of midnight on the 17th?

    Custom coding would be required ...

    And right now, that is a lot more than tossing out a few lines of code for this ...

    This is not impossible to do by any means, I just cannot afford the time to hunt these coding changes down for you ...

    Sorry, one more question! What does this part of the code mean?
    date('Y-m-d H:i:s', time()))
    When I quickly looked at it before, I only really "noticed the H and S part and thought it would start counting down hours and minutes at some point. THEN I looked again and realized that there was an I in there, and realized that Ummmmm.....that's NOT hours, minutes, and seconds

    What DOES that mean?
