Live Countdown Timer Fix

  • Installed this plugin in WordPress 3.0.1 and had the following error on the Tools, Live Countdown Timer page:
    — unserialized string in (my wordpress install directory)/wp-content/plugins/live-countdown-timer/live-countdown-timer.php line 167.

    It was an easy fix, just open up live-countdown-timer.php with Notepad and search for this line:
    $xDBArr = unserialize(get_option(‘live_countdown_timer_Values’));

    replace the entire line with:
    $xDBArr = get_option(‘live_countdown_timer_Values’);

    Apparently the data is already unserialized and once you take that out the errors disappear and the plugin works both on the sidebar and the settings.

    Just some info to pass along as the author seems to have vanished and his plugin website page is gone and the domain is for sale from what I can tell.

  • Thanks gholt…

    Now the plugin works.. it’s a little bit sad the developer hasn’t updated this.
    The problem has been fixed it only needs to be fixed in the original file..

    Hmmmm… I just installed it and did not get that error. What I get is …
    Warning: mktime() expects parameter 4 to be long, string given in blogs/wp-content/plugins/live-countdown-timer/calculateTime.php on line 7

    It also appears that what downloads and installs (automatic install/upgrade) is not 2.1.0.7 even though that is what wordpress tells me is the newest version.

    @gholt & @jaja.. Sorry for this huge delay. I fixed the problems. Please update and test now.
    If anything else pops out, let me know, I will get right on it!
    Thanks
