More options with the Pro version

If you are looking for finer filters of the timed visibility take a look at the Pro version of this plugin. That version comes with all options of this plugin and contains additional options:

• Visibility based on the time on each weekday: You can fine tune the daily visibility based on the time of the weekday, from a start time to an end time in the day.

• Visibility based on days in months: You can control the visibility of the widget based on every day of a month, from 1 to 31, and every month of a year. Since the months can have 28, 29, 30 or 31 days but you want to use the last day of any month there is an extra option ‘last day‘ which picks the last day of a month regardless of the length of a month.

• Visibility based on weekdays in months: The option ‘Weekdays of month‘ enables you to select every ordinal number, every day of a week, from Monday to Sunday, and every month of a year to control the visibility of the widget. If you want to pick the last weekday in every month take the option ‘last‘.
