Very nice looking counter man , just a couple quick dumb questions ? for the days counter , can we change the Number of digits from 3 to 2 ? and for the end of the counter action ,Can I get my web developer to program the action to make some “featured deal” unavailable to buy ?
(1) yes, you can change Number of digits from 2 to 99999, (2) yes, you can redirect browser URL when countdown complete via jCountdown, which mean you can do anything you want in the new URL
Thanks for that … Whats the story with not supporting WP 3.1 and 3.2 ? And can you please confirm that you support the later versions ? As My web developer was reluctant to use plugin thinking it doesn’t support 3.x WP … Thanks again
Hi, as you can see, jCountdown don’t support WP 3.1 and 3.2, it only works in 3.3 3.4 3.5, but it will support 3.6 in next update
Thanks man , My website is built on 3.6.1 and I really want to use this count down , any time frame on the next update ?
Hi, sorry, I can’t make sure what time it will be release
Does the plugin work with Wordpress 3.6.1?
sorry, it not support 3.6.1 now, but I will make it support 3.6.1 in next version
The pluggin is not working on mobile phones or Google chrome. It is fine on explorer and firefox can you tell me how to fix this. the website domain is www.danielandjeanwedding.com
Hi, because your theme CSS file overwrite some important global CSS setting, please try to remove these script in http://http://www.danielandjeanwedding.com/wp-content/themes/gameover/css/autoinclude/foundation.min.css
*{-webkit-box-sizing:border-box;-moz-box-sizing:border-box;box-sizing:border-box}
.label{padding:1px 4px 2px;font-size:10px;font-weight:bold;text-align:center;text-decoration:none;line-height:1;white-space:nowrap;display:inline;position:relative;bottom:1px;color:#fff;background:#2ba6cb}
With this plugin is it possible to just have a standard number count up? I want something like “Number of items purchased: ###,###,###. Is this possible?
Hi, it’s made for countdown, so it can’t do that, but I also provide custom service, you can contact me here http://codecanyon.net/user/ufoufoufo if you need this service
Ooops! it doesn´t work with Daylight Saving Time ?!
I set the right timezone from Spain -1 and the countdown finished an hour later on NY from the beginning of the event, any thoughts?
Hi, jCountdown was a pure javascript library, so it need to use your system clock time to calculate the remaining time, I think it might because you enable the Daylight Saving Time on your PC, and it make system can’t return the real time, sorry
Ok, it takes the real time on my computer? then why the countdown finish 1 hour later, should be accordingly…
Any way around?
Hi, that’s because you enable the daylight saving time setting, you can try to disable it, and it should display the right remain time
HELLO, i just bought this and installed it an cannot get it to display on any post or page, nor sidebar. shortcode generates fine, nothign displays.

beautiful work..! Ok I live in NY, and I want to broadcast a game from Spain, on Spain time, do I have the chance to set their timezone and see the remaining time based on NY?
Hi, you just need to make sure you set the right time and timezone setting, and everyone in Spain, NY, or other countries will display same time, so you don’t have to set different time setting for different country, the jCountdown will do it for you
Im so confused. I have figured out how to create the shortcode, but when i place the shortcode on my page, i cannot get the timer to center! How do you center this plugin to the page you’re working on?
<div style="text-align:center"> [jcountdown shortcode here] </div>
Hi. Awesome plugin. Best countdown plugin I’ve seen. My only issue is that when the timer is not set to “auto” width, and set as a fixed width, the graphics resolution becomes a lower quality and is not as sharp as the auto-width. Is there a fix for this, and/or will you be updating the plugin to resolve this issue?
Hi, when you set the width to a value, jCountdown need to resize the graphics in your browser to fix your width setting, so it might lost a little bit quality, thanks for your understanding
Hello Plug-in does not work. I need help.

Hi, just sent you a mail, and feel free to contact me, if you have any questions
Ufoufoufo,
Thanks for the code you gave in the comments above! I actually purchased this plugin thinking it was responsive based on your live demo, not realizing the responsive countdowns I was seeing were the image at the top, not the counters! Whoops, my bad.
Using the @media css inquires and shortcodes you provided, I have it working fine for desktop and mobile devices fine. If you ever update this plugin and make the whole thing responsive, that would be amazing.
Thanks!
Hi,
thanks for your feedback, but just like the comment l post before, it’s really hard to add lots functions in one file, and also make it simple and easy to use for most people, but you can use the example script I post to do that, I think it’s enough for most situation, and if you want, you can even try add one more countdown setting for the middle size resolution
I’ve been patiently waiting for an update for this plugin and i have seen nothing. When is a responsive version going to be made available?
I have a 4 stage (size) responsive site, of which i can only use this plugin on the two largest sizes. Any body element less than 480 makes this plugin corrupt and useless regardless of auto or fixed options. How this could be used as a widget is baffling considering all of your included themes are corrupt under 480px. I have to use:
div.jCountdownContainer {
display: none;
}
...in half my layouts to avoid abnormal display of this countdown. My question is simple and warrants a remedy, your countdown.css should already have @media code to resolve the display issues. Is the plugin no longer in development? I can’t use this for iPad, iPhone or desktop displays under 800px screen width. The following image is the display of this countdown using a fixed option with a 205px width, and all 4 responsive views:
http://walkingdeadcomics.org/wp-upload/images/2013/07/22/countdown.jpg
I’ve waited several months for something to be updated with this plugin, I’d very much like to be able to display this properly on an iphone and iPad. Furthermore, i understand you have not designated this as a responsive plugin, however due to the issues it has, you might want to specify “definitely not a responsive plugin”, just a suggestion.
Hi,
first of all,
thanks for your purchase and feedback
and this is a wordpress version of jCountdown, it’s made for the users who don’t know much javascript and css setting, so you can simply create countdowns via shortcode that you create in wordpress panel, I tried to put every functions in the panel, but it’s really hard to provide every user’s needs, because there are too much users and needs
and I think you can try to use @media to slove your needs, you just need to add 2~3 countdowns for the different layout, and use @media to display / hide it, e.g.
<style>
@media screen and (max-width: 640px){
#middle_countdown{
display:none;
}
#large_countdown{
display:none;
}
}
@media screen and (max-width: 1000px){
#small_countdown{
display:none;
}
#large_countdown{
display:none;
}
@media screen and (min-width: 1000px){
#small_countdown{
display:none;
}
#middle_countdown{
display:none;
}
}
</style>
<div id="small_countdown">
[shortcode_for_small_screen_resolution]
</div>
<div id="middle_countdown">
[shortcode_for_middle_screen_resolution]
</div>
<div id="large_countdown">
[shortcode_for_large_screen_resolution]
</div>
In theory that would work, unfortunately the way it is coded makes that impossible. I’ll give one example:
I have a fixed width 205px countdown, in theory this should not exceed 205px. Now for the actual output:
From top to bottom-
div#jCountdown8801968083 is assigned for the specific short code, which is 910px by 64px, the size of my content.
div.JCountdownContainer is next and is the only element fixed at 205px
then and where the issues multiply is div.jCountdownScale which is 306px wide
and then you have the same size div:
div.jCountdown.slide.black again at 306px wide
So in reality you never get a fixed width, i'm well aware of the responsive abilities of typical components, this is not something i can fix with multiple short codes or through css without rewritting the .js and .css at a level of 50% or more.
I need to know if you have any plans on fixing this plugin, and what you can tell me now to eliminate the issues that exist. It doesn’t matter what shortcode or size i make, it’s always going to display improperly at lower screen sizes. I have tested this with 3 separate themes including twenty twelve.
What i need you to do is place your countdown with a fixed width at 300px or less and drag your browser window in from the right side and tell me you see a problem, and that it can be fixed.
<style>
#small_countdown{
position:relative;
}
#large_countdown{
position:relative;
}
@media screen and (max-width:1000px){
#small_countdown{
left:0px;
}
#large_countdown{
left:-10000px;
}
}
@media screen and (min-width:1000px){
#small_countdown{
left:-10000px;
}
#large_countdown{
left:0px;
}
}
</style>

I appreciate your resonse to this issue, but in order to fully express my concern, please visit this page; using your last code provided and no body elements. Please take note of the padding issues and the element pushing to the right when in smaller screen sizes. Yes you will need to drag the screen size:
http://walkingdeadcomics.org/temp/You can clearly see the padding issues and the element not staying within the pre-defined size or position.
I think it can be fix be simple css setting, but I need you to know, it’s not a issue, problem or bug on my file, you need to know you are asking functions that are not include in this file, all I do for you is just want to help you to solve your problem on your project, I’m appreciate all the users who purchased my files, but that doesn’t mean I must to do everything for you, I think I have done enough, you should need spend some time for your work, good luck
In my opinion, and to anyone else who takes the time to read the comments: Your last response is unprofessional and is unsupported by the facts represented. Due to your last comment i will be removing your plugin from use and will move on. And by the way you have yet to answer the question on whether you plan on upgrading this plugin, but i guess for me anyway it really doesn’t matter anymore. When you state “I think I have done enough” when you have done nothing, it makes it clear how you intend to support your plugin.
Very Unprofessional.
I will update this plugin for more functions, but it’s not for your problem, and you need to know, I already help you to finish most part of you work, you just need a little adjust to get it work, but you don’t even want to try, you can’t ask anyone to do your work, it’s Very Unprofessional, you need spent some time to upgrade your skill
Very Unprofessional.
This is me moving on, and not needing to make a proper response to your last comment.
I think you really need to spent some time to improve your skill, instead of spent your time for argue
Is there any way to center align the countdown?
sure, just use the css text-align setting
e.g.
<div style="text-align:center"> [short code here] </div>
hi! does it run on foobar?
You can use it in your post, page, and sidebar
Hi, just bought this and got two problems:
1. Labels are also not showing on my site: http://www.reelise.org.au/preview
2. I too would like to include this in the php so I can put it at the bottom of the (dynamic) home page rather than in a widget area.
Thanks!
Hi,
1. that’s usually because your CSS files over-write some important CSS setting, please check your css file, and if you still don’t know how to fix, feel free to contact me here, http://codecanyon.net/user/ufoufoufo I will try to help you
2. sorry, as you can see in the file description, jCountdown for wordpress is made for add countdowns via shortcode in your post, page and sidebar
