Gobbert Countdown Timer, Urgency Bars & Pricing Tables

Fixed-date, holiday, recurring and evergreen timers; a sticky bar across the top or bottom of the screen; WooCommerce product, cart and checkout timers with coupon expiry; and pricing tables whose sale prices switch themselves on and off with a timer. Everything described here is included. One timer engine drives every placement, so you learn it once and put it anywhere: inline in a post, in a sticky bar across the top or bottom of the screen, on a WooCommerce product page, in the cart, and at checkout. Four kinds of timer Fixed date. One real deadline, the same moment for every visitor, in your site's timezone, so a sale that ends at midnight ends at your midnight. Holiday sales. One timer for your whole sale year. It counts down to each occasion by itself, forever, and shows nothing in between. Recurring. Resets on a schedule (hourly, daily, weekly or monthly) for a standing weekly offer. Evergreen. A personal deadline for each visitor, starting when they first arrive and remembered on their own device. You choose when it appears (straight away, after they have been reading a while, or when they come back) and whether it ever restarts. A built-in holiday calendar Pick Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Christmas, New Year, Valentine's, Easter, Halloween, Boxing Day, Back to School or Summer, and the dates are worked out for you every year. That includes the awkward ones: Easter moves with the lunar calendar, and Black Friday is the day after the fourth Thursday of November, which is not always the last. A holiday campaign stays correct year after year without you editing it. WooCommerce Show a timer on the product page, in the cart and at checkout. Name a coupon and it is applied while the sale window is open and removed again when the window closes, so an ended sale does not keep discounting. You can also have a dated timer take away the add-to-cart button when it reaches zero, so a real deadline really closes the offer. On a site without WooCommerce the store settings simply stay switched off. Twelve styles, in every builder Counter, departure board, dials, meter, precision, statement, neon, odometer, progress ring, draining bar, digital and split flap, in compact or prominent, all responsive. Start from a ready-made look and adjust it, or set everything yourself: your own colours, a panel behind the timer, corner rounding, spacing, the heading above or below the digits, and your own wording for the unit labels in any language. Everything shows on a live canvas while you set it up, on a mock of your own page, so you always see what you are going to get. Place a timer with the block, the Elementor widget, the WPBakery element or the shortcode. Every one renders through the same code, so they cannot drift apart. Pricing tables that follow the sale One table, two prices. Give any row a sale value beside its everyday one, connect the table to a timer, and the sale prices appear while that timer runs and go back on their own when it ends. No duplicate table to build, and nothing to change back on the day. A sale is not always a discount, so every field has its own optional sale version: the price, the wording under it, the badge, and what is included. Change only the badge if that is the offer. Buttons can send somebody to a link you choose, add a WooCommerce product to the cart, go straight to checkout, or go to checkout with a coupon applied while the sale is on. The table works with no timer attached at all, if a pricing table is all you need. A pricing table that looks like your brand Choose how many tiers, pick a starting look from the carousel, choose its colours, then adjust anything you like. Ten looks and ten colour schemes, which is a hundred tables rather than twenty near-identical cards: no two looks are the same shape in another colour, because colour is its own control. Each card in the picker shows the real table rather than describing it. Every tier can carry the lines real pricing pages use, each as its own field rather than improvised in a badge: a saving like "50% off" or "$39 off", a per-day equivalent like "less than a coffee a day", a strapline under the name, and small print under the button. Each is optional and renders nothing when empty. The badge itself can sit inside the card, straddle its top edge as a ribbon, hang above it as a tab, or run across the corner as a flag, and the recommended tier can take a glow. Underneath, the layout is set by two separate controls rather than one combined list of styles. How the tiers sit together: spaced apart, touching with no gaps, on one continuous sheet divided by hairlines, set wide apart so each stands alone, or with the recommended one drawn taller and filled so it stands out of the row. How each card is built: a bordered panel, a filled header band carrying the name and price, no box at all, a coloured spine down the side, a rate card with the price above the name, a price on a tab across the corner, or a capped header with a point aimed at the tier. Those two multiply, so the combinations are yours rather than a list somebody wrote out. The panel the table sits on: none, a flat ground, a soft wash, or a dark one that re-cuts its own text colours so it stays readable rather than merely going dark. How the price is set. The familiar bold number; a light, wide, quiet register for a brand that would rather state a price than sell one; one large enough to carry a page on its own; or the plan name leading with the price small underneath. How the recommended column is marked: a coloured border, a lift, drawn larger, a filled bar across the top, or inverted to a dark ground while the others stay light. Whichever you choose, it is also announced to a screen reader, so the recommendation is never carried by colour alone. One accent colour driving the badge, the ticks, the button and the border together, rather than four pickers that can disagree with each other. Side by side on a phone, not stacked A price means very little on its own and a great deal beside two others, which is why a pricing table exists at all. Stacking the tiers on a phone means they are read one at a time, and the comparison becomes an act of memory. So there is a third layout for narrow screens. Every tier stays on screen: the one being read takes most of the width and the others narrow beside it, still showing their name and price, and a tap or a swipe opens another. It works with any number of tiers, it is announced properly to a screen reader, and if the script never arrives the table falls back to the ordinary stack rather than breaking. Stacking and sideways swiping are both still there if you prefer them. Honest about evergreen timers An evergreen timer is a real per-visitor deadline only if the offer it points to genuinely expires for that visitor. If the price never changes when the timer reaches zero, the timer is not telling the truth, and repeat visitors notice. The plugin gives you the honest configuration; using it honestly is your call. Your settings are yours Download every campaign, its style, schedule, expiry action and your bar settings as one file. Keep it as a backup before a risky edit, restore it after a reinstall, or upload it on another site to copy a whole season across.

1.2.7

• The text domain now matches the plugin slug.

1.2.6

• Translations are now delivered through translate.wordpress.org rather than bundled with the plugin.
• Clearer description.

1.2.5

• Fixed date, recurring, evergreen and holiday campaigns, all driven by one timer engine.
• Each timer chooses its own placement: a bar across the whole site, or free standing on the pages you choose.
• Sticky urgency bar at the top or bottom of the screen, dismissable, able to slide away while a visitor reads, limited to chosen pages, and hideable from signed in members.
• WooCommerce placements on the product page, the cart and checkout, with sale coupon expiry and an option to hide add to cart when a dated sale ends.
• One element in the block editor, Elementor, WPBakery and the classic shortcode.
• Built in holiday calendar that computes its own dates each year, Easter and Black Friday included.
• Per campaign appearance: four styles, your own colours, corner rounding, unit spacing and heading placement.
• Pricing tables with a sale price beside every everyday one, three layouts, one to five columns, currency and number formatting for four conventions, and WooCommerce cart, checkout and coupon buttons.
• Pricing table styling: ten ready-made looks and ten colour schemes that combine freely, five ways the table runs, seven ways a card is built, four panel treatments, four typographic registers, six ways of marking the recommended column, four badge placements, three glows, and your own accent colour over any of it.
• Four levels of depth for a pricing table: flat, raised cards with shadows tinted by your own colour, an embossed surface, or the row set in perspective with the recommended tier facing the reader. Every level works with every shape and colour, and straightens itself on a phone.
• A colour of its own for the badge, separate from the table's accent, so an urgent badge and a branded table no longer have to be the same colour.
• Colours are chosen from a row under the table itself, and hovering one shows it on the table before you commit to it.
• Every shape choice is shown as a drawing of what it does rather than described in words, and the chosen one animates to show the difference.
• The table stays on screen while you work down the settings, with its colour and badge controls pinned beneath it, so nothing has to be judged from memory.
• Whether the table runs across the page or one tier per row is one choice in one place, beside the other decisions about shape.
• Optional lines on every tier: a saving, a per-day equivalent, a strapline under the name and small print under the button, each shown only when written.
• A monthly and yearly switch above the table, with both prices in the page so it works with no scripts and on a cached page.
• The number of tiers is the first choice on the screen, up to five, with an animated guide that demonstrates what happens to a price when others are placed beside it rather than describing it.
• Pricing tables can keep every tier side by side on a phone, with a tap or a swipe to open one, instead of stacking them.
• Export and import every campaign as a single file.
