Timer themes and placements

Create responsive timers for posts, pages and widgets, with WooCommerce and Elementor integrations. The timers can support events, product launches, promotions and special offers without coding.

Choose from 40 premium themes: 10 Standard, 10 Vertical, 10 Circle and 10 Flip. Inline display places timer components on one row with responsive auto-scaling. Customize colors, fonts, sizes and positioning to match a site’s design. Timers are designed for desktop, tablet and mobile screens.

Timer modes and schedules

Premium works with count-up timers, evergreen countdowns and evergreen count-up timers. A countdown can restart after it ends or repeat every specified number of hours, daily, weekly or monthly. Repeat settings include intervals, days of the week, days of the month and stop conditions. Evergreen settings cover duration, expiry mode, restart behavior and daily expiry time.

Choose which countdown fields appear. When a timer expires, it can redirect to a URL, display a button, conceal page content or show hidden content.
