 [ajmumm](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ajmumm/) 03 November 2025 1 reply

A number of bugs and instructions missing that might be helpful for others to know:
Time is GMT (not identified anywhere) so adjust accordingly for your timezone. For
PST, I had to add 8 hours to get the countdown to be correct. To center the countdown
timer, I had to use custom coding in the shortcode block. I used <div style=”text-
align:center;”> SHORTCODE HERE </div> and that seemed to work. Do not skip the warning
that says “will not show unless…” as it will not, in fact, show unless you have 
that in the title.
