Upon activation, you'll notice a new "Countdown Timer" menu item in your Wordpress admin area.
Skip the intro page and go to Countdown Timer => Add Timer to create a new timer.
Start by adding your milestone name as the title for the new countdown timer:
Keep in mind that the new timer will use the timezone set in your Wordpress site settings. If you want to change the timezone for a specific countdown timer, then you'll have to go to Settings => General to update your settings.

OK. Now let's see the magic ...

Excellent training subject. I can see its usefulness already.
I have a question: in lesson three, you show a screen shot of the plugin date and expiry date. Also shown is the circle, which is labeled smooth. After that, nothing is filled out. Are these default settings?
