Today I want to update you on 2 improvements to the Countdown Element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1) Resizable Flip Countdown <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Previously only Basic Countdown is resizable. Now the cool animated Flip Countdown can also be resized, but it is a ‘cheat’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What I mean is, you can resize it, but it will automatically approximate to one of the three standard sizes as shown below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is no way to make it fully resizable due to the animation requirement. But we reckon that these 3 sizes should be enough for most designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2) Countdown From Fixed End Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Previously you can only countdown from a certain time. Say if you set a 3-minute countdown, everyone who goes to your page will experience 3 minutes of countdown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now you can set the countdown based on a ‘Fixed End Time’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Say you have an offer or webinar that ends on a certain date and time, you can set that time as the End Time. The countdown timer will automatically calculate and show the remaining time to the visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here is how the two settings look like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can toggle between ‘page load’ and ‘fixed time’ and set the time accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you use the Fixed Time option, be sure to enter a URL (see arrow below), preferably an opt-in page, so that visitors who are late for the offer or webinar can opt-in and be notified of the next offer\/webinar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to try out these option now, go to LeadsLeap Page Builder<\/a> and try it. (If this is your first time trying the Countdown Element, read this guide before trying<\/a>.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Couple of weeks ago, we released a new element called ‘Countdown’ in our Landing Page Builder.
