 * Just downloaded this. Someone recommended this for my situation, where I have
   a table with 365 rows (the whole year) and times for 5 activities per day. I 
   need my site to display only the activities for Today from the table where the
   site figures it out automatically by knowing today’s date.
 * Is there a tutorial or documentation for your plugin i can read to figure this
   our or can you help me with this? Here is a link to the question i posted on 
   the support forum of another plugin. Thanks.

 * There isn’t much documentation yet, I’m afraid. You can possibly do what you 
   want by creating a view using the [CURDATE()](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/date-and-time-functions.html#function_curdate)
   function. Say you’ve got a table `timetable {id, activity_date, time_1, time_2,
   time_3}` then you coud show just the row for today with:
 *     ```
       CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW timetable_today AS
         SELECT * FROM timetable
         WHERE activity_date = CURDATE();
       ```
   
 * Then just grant ‘read’ access to that view for whichever roles are applicable.
