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.
