What it does
Many sites need a clear way to show visitors how much time is left before something happens, such as an event start, a product launch or the end of a sale. Building a countdown by hand usually means custom code or scripts. This plugin works inside Elementor, so you add a timer to a page the same way you add other elements, then adjust its look and settings from the editor. It requires Elementor to run.
The plugin offers two timer styles, a flip countdown and a final countdown, plus support for 12-hour and 24-hour clock formats. Typography can be set with Google Fonts, and timers are responsive across desktops, tablets and smartphones. It works with Elementor-based themes, is translation ready with an included .pot file, and is tested with Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera and Edge. Setup and usage documentation is included for people new to the plugin.
Best for
- Elementor sites promoting events or product launches
