PassPorter Community Tip: A "Brit" Different Guidebook
PassPorter's Walt Disney World for British Holidaymakers is a "brit" different view of Walt Disney World for our UK friends by author/columnist Cheryl Pendry! This comprehensive, 260-page e-book covering every aspect of visiting Walt Disney World from the United Kingdom. It takes you through your entire visit, from the planning stages to working out the best way to get there and get around, with details about arriving in America, passports and immigration, duty-free allowances, driving in the States, and staying in touch while you're away!

Club Passholders get it now in the Reading Room. The e-book is also now on sale to the general public in the PassPorter Store.

I'm also trying to add a special countdown banner from mickeypath.com. I haven't been able to figure it out or understand any of the mentioned directions. Could someone explain to a computer illiterate what to do? Thanks

Once you've entered your countdown information, click Save Changes. Your countdown timer should appear at the bottom of your signature (as seen in posts) immediately.

Troubleshooting Tips
  • Be sure you have information in your signature. Without something in your signature -- even just your name -- the countdown timer can't be put in it. You can edit your signature in My Home > Edit Signature.
  • Does your countdown seem off? Make sure you don't have the month and day mixed up in your options.
  • Do not use the ampersand (&) anywhere in your ticker (i.e., the event or end message) -- if you do, it will not display.

Enjoy!
I just went to MY Home, Edit Options and added my dates and clicked on Enable the Countdown and Save Changes and when I quick replied to a message my countdown didn't show up. Have I done something wrong?

The last sentence in the instructions reads;

Quote:
Please note that this countdown appears at the bottom of your signature, so you must have information in your signature for the countdown to appear.
Therefore there must be something in your signature, specifically some text, usually we use our name...
