 This plugin allows you to show or hide content in Joomla articles and modules (based on your settings from the Opening Hours module)

 When you use this a custom HTML module, make sure you enable the prepare content option in the options tab of the custom HTML module.

 
### Current Status Shortcode:

 You use a shortcode like this and the text will only be visible if the business is currently open (or closed, if you set status="closed")

 `{openinghours status="open"}Your text when open here{/openinghours}`

 optional: When you have multiple modules, you can target a specific module with module="MODULE-ID".

 `{openinghours status="closed" module="114"}Your closed text here{/openinghours}`

 
### Today Shortcode:

 `{opentoday}Your text when you are open today{/opentoday}`

 `{closedtoday}Your text when you are closed today{/closedtoday}`

 optional: When you have multiple modules, you can target a specific module with module="MODULE-ID".

 `{opentoday module="114"}Your text when you are open today{/opentoday}`

 `{exceptionaltoday} Your text when today has exceptional openinghours {/exceptionaltoday}` - Conditional content shown only if there are any exceptional opening hours for today

 Example: `{opentoday}Today we are open from {opentime} till {closetime}. {/opentoday}`

 
### Dynamic tags:

 Inside the shortcodes you can add these dynamic tags:

 `{opentime}` - Show the 1st openingshours of today

 `{closetime}` - Show the 1st closinghours of today

 `{opentime2}` - Show the 2nd openingshours of today

 `{closetime2}` - Show the 2nd closinghours of today

 `{currentdate}` - Show the current date (based on the settings of the module)

 `{currenttime}` - Show the current time (based on the settings of the module)

 ``optional: When you have multiple modules, you can target a specific module with module="MODULE-ID".

 Example: `{opentime module="114"}`

 The date- and timeformat used in this plugin is based on the settings of the module. you can override this with the format-attribute inside the tag.

 Example: `{currentdate format="d-m-Y"}`

 Example: `{closetime format="H:i"}`
