 * Is there a way to hide the timer after the event has happened.
 * So i dont want to show 0, 0 , 0 ,0… zeros…
 * I am using this where the admin inserts the shortcode into a custom field.
 * Thanks for any help.

 * Yes. Instead of using the shortcode like so:
 *     ```
       [tminus t="2012-03-21 17:00:00" /]
       ```
   
 * Use it like so:
 *     ```
       [tminus t="2012-03-21 17:00:00"] [/tminus]
       ```
   
 * Basically, you are changing the launch content from `null` to a blank space. 
   The launchtarget is set to the entire countdown by default, so when the countdown
   reaches 00:00:00 it will be replaced with… a space.
 * Let us know if this works for you.

 * Thanks, needed a extra space in there… works great.
 * Anyway to show the date with the timer?
 * Example: Date of auction on left side, Countdown timer on the right?

 * Currently, the only way to show the launch date is to display manually using 
   above/below countdown html areas. We will look into including a display_launch_date
   shortcode in an upcoming release.
 * Glad you got your issue resolved!
