- Check mobile wrapping if the timer appears inside a headline.
- Compare the inline timer with any dedicated Countdown element on the same page so the urgency message stays consistent.
FAQβ
When should I use Timer instead of Countdown?
Use Timer when the countdown needs to sit inline inside a sentence, headline, or short promotional phrase. Use Countdown for a standalone block with its own layout.
What should I configure before publishing a Timer element?
Review the timer copy, countdown token placement, typography, color, alignment, and responsive spacing so the text remains readable on mobile.
Can I use Timer for legal offer deadlines?
Only use it when the countdown matches the real offer rules. If the deadline is fixed or regulated, confirm the copy and timer behavior with the campaign owner before sending traffic.
What should I check if the timer text looks broken?
Check that the countdown token is still present, remove extra pasted formatting, and preview the sentence on desktop and mobile widths.
