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_countdown1716461580 );

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 ) . '"]' );
