          The Countdown Timer is a WordPress plugin that makes it simple to add a countdown timer to your pages or posts.<\/p>\n\n

          How to use the plugin<\/h3>\n\n

          The FlipDown plugin makes use of a WordPress shortcode. Simply add the shortcode within your WordPress page or post using the following syntax:<\/p>\n\n

          [flipdown date=\"2023-11-27T00:00:00-0500\"]<\/p>\n\n

          You can also change the theme from dark (default) to light:<\/p>\n\n

          [flipdown date=\"2023-11-27T00:00:00-0500\" theme=\"light\"]<\/p>\n\n

          The data should be in the format of a JavaScript ISO date with the offset for your location. The above example creates a countdown timer for Cyber Monday on November 27, 2023.<\/p>\n\n

          It's worth mentioning that the date should includes zeros for months less than 10 and times less than 10.<\/p>\n\n

          For example, August 7th would be written as 2023-08-07.<\/p>","raw_excerpt":"The Countdown Timer is a WordPress plugin that makes it simple to add a countdown timer to your pages or posts.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin\/183931","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/plugin"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=183931"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wporg\/v1\/users\/roberthoward"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=183931"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"plugin_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_section?post=183931"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_tags?post=183931"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_category?post=183931"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_contributors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_contributors?post=183931"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_business_model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tah.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_business_model?post=183931"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
