Deze plugin **is niet getest met de laatste 3 grotere versies van WordPress**. Mogelijk
wordt het niet meer onderhouden of ondersteund. Ook kunnen er compatibiliteitsproblemen
ontstaan wanneer het wordt gebruikt met recentere versies van WordPress.

## Beschrijving

The Date Calculator plugin has NOW three basic functions.

    1. It returns the current date via the shortcode [date_now] in posts, pages and
       also in Contact Form 7-forms.
 *  1. It can calculate a date up [date_add] or down [date_sub] and returns it in posts,
       pages and also in Contact Form 7 forms.
 *  1. It can say a special date [date_say] like `last monday` or `second friday of
       next month` and returns it in posts, pages and also in Contact Form 7 forms.

NEW IN VERSION 1.2.0: Now it is also possible to determine the date format!!!

This plugin enable the shortcode-support within Contact Form 7-forms so that the

    [date_add year="0" show="yearonly"]-[date_add month="1" show="monthonly"]-[date_add day="1" show="dayonly"] returns: 2014-11-02
    ```

  Returning a special date in your own format:

It is also possible to impersonate a special date, in your desired format. This

 Suppose today is the 01.10.2016

To use this plugin with custom date format on date_add and date_sub here is how 
to easily fix it. Go to the Plugins -> Plugin Editor then select Date Calculator.
You are now on editable date-calculator.php FOR date_add There you need to find 
line 203 and replace with this code: $datecalc = date($format, mktime(0, 0, 0, date(“
m”)+$month, date(“d”)+$day, date(“Y”)+$year)); FOR date_sub Find line 244 and replace
with this code: $datecalc = date($format, mktime(0, 0, 0, date(“m”)-$month, date(“
d”)-$day, date(“Y”)-$year)); Now you can use custom date format.

the only one reason I dl this plugin is automatic display for a future date based
on today, but too bad there’s a format issue for date_add short code, please fix
this in the next update, thank you, good job.
