Creates real time customizable digital world clocks of any location of your choice on your posts or pages using simple shortcode. 


== Description ==

Creates digital real time world clocks on your posts or pages using simple shortcode. The customizable clocks show the name and current time of the location of your choice.

* The clocks display the current time, even if the user's computer clock is wrong.
* Automatic adjustment for Daylight Saving Time
* All major time zones supported
* Customizable and easy to use with shortcode


**Quick Start**

* Put the following shortcode anywhere on your post or page to create a GMT/UTC clock:

    `[worldtime]`  

	
* Use the 'places' parameter to specify the clock's time zone:

    `[worldtime places="Paris"]`  

	
* List several places separated by a comma. This will create multiple world clocks in a stack (currently maximum 6)

    `[worldtime places="Rome, New York"]`  


The name of the location has to match exactly with a name in the list of the locations. For a complete list of all locations visit

Please note currently there are only up to 6 clocks supported in a stack. Also please limit the total number of clocks per page to 6, see below for further details.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Why am I only allowed to put 6 clocks on a single page? =

This plugin utilizes services provided by [TimeAndDate.com](http://timeanddate.com) and is made possible with their friendly permission.

TimeAndDate's condition of use stipulates a **maximum of 6 clocks** per page. In future this limit will be removed however for now it is important to stick to it as each clock creates a connection to their server (and ours). TimeAndDate also requires a separate link to their site if more than two clocks are used.

= Any other questions? =
