Does the DDP go off of the number of days you're staying or the number of days of tickets? We'll be spending a day away from the parks and were wondering if we should not get tickets for that day, but we want to get a DDP credit for that day so we could eat at a resort or stash it for a Signature Dining restaurant.
Last Trip-April 2008-Boardwalk Inn
Next Trip-October 2017-POFQ
It's based on the number of nights you're staying. Tickets are irrelevant as far as DDP goes.
The credits can be used anytime between the time you check in and midnight of the day you check out.

As Fangorn said, DDP is based on number of nights your staying. That way you can get free dining on your check-in and check-out day depending on how you use your meals.
Sounds like you have Table Service Dining? Also consider on your check-in day you still have the full day of meals & snacks even if you come in later after lunch and your meals can be used up until midnight on your check-out day.
We usually go to Downtown Disney before our drive back home and eat there after checking out of our Resort and do a little shopping. Many of our meals can be shared allowing us to get a Big Breakfast Platter before heading to a Park.

Sounds like you do a lot like we do. We have to fly in, and usually we don't get to our resort (using ME) until anywhere from 4-6:00pm, so we usually just go to the food court and us a CS entitlement that first night instead of a TS, which allows us to use that extra TS for signature restaurant or a 2TS character dining or CP dining package.
The kids are getting bigger now, but our previous two trips we were able to do a lot of CS sharing at lunch, which enabled us to use one CS at breakfast to get a big breakfast platter. When you get 5 CS entitlements a day, and you can share, it opens up a lot of flexibility.
