Customize the time of the countdown timers
You can change the countdown timers dynamically using two ways.
Javascript:
You can update the time of the countdown dynamically through JS using this simple jQuery function gpls_wpsctr_init_flip_countdown.
Example:
jQuery('#gpls-wpsctr-countdown-timer-wspq6qyp .gpls-wpsctr-flipdown').gpls_wpsctr_init_flip_countdown( 1716461580 );
All you need to do is changing the countdown element ID gpls-wpsctr-countdown-timer-wspq6qyp with the target element ID and change the timestamp 1716461580 with the target date timestamp.
PHP:
You can change the countdown date dynamically through shortcode using datetime attribute
Example:
echo do_shortcode( '[gpls_wpsctr_countdown id="153" datetime="' . esc_attr( $custom_timestamp ) . '"]' );
