Countdown

A simple and HTML agnostic date countdown plugin with different countdown options.

How to use?

To add hs.countdown.js in your page, wrap any block in a parent element with an ID or class and add the same ID or the class in the JS init function of the plugin, set the time data-end-date="" and data-*-format="".

Copy-paste the following <script> near the end of your pages under JS Implementing Plugins to enable it.

            
              <script src="../../assets/vendor/jquery.countdown.min.js"></script>
            
          

Copy-paste the following <script> near the end of your pages under JS Space to enable it.

            
              <script src="../../assets/js/helpers/hs.countdown.js"></script>
            
          

Copy-paste the init function under JS Plugins Init., before the closing </body> tag, to enable it.

            
              <script>
                $(document).on('ready', function () {
                  // initialization of countdowns
                  var countdowns = $.HSCore.components.HSCountdown.init('.js-countdown', {
