Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/dispatch-countdown` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly. 2. Activate the plugin through the ‚Plugins‘ screen in WordPress 3. Use the WooCommerce->Settings->Product Settings->Dispatch Countdown screen to configure the plugin ## FAQ How do I move the countdown? The countdown must be called at a point where `global $product` is available, so make sure to call this plugin after WooCommerce has loaded. To move the countdown, you can remove the action and then add it back wherever you want: ``` /** * Move dispatch countdown */ function your_theme_move_dispatch_countdown() { // Check the class exists if ( ! class_exists( 'Dispatch_Countdown' ) ) { return; } // Get the current instance $dispatch_countdown = Dispatch_Countdown::get_public_instance(); // Remove the action remove_action( 'woocommerce_before_single_product', array( $dispatch_countdown, 'display_countdown' ) ); // Add the action back where you like add_action( 'your_theme_before_main_container', array( $dispatch_countdown, 'display_countdown' ) ); } add_action( 'init', 'your_theme_move_dispatch_countdown' ); ``` Replacing `your_theme_before_main_container` with whichever hook you wish How do I change the HTML output? There are a few filters available to override certain parts of the output. The main filter is `dispatch_countdown_content` and can be used as follows: ``` /** * Change countdown HTML output * * NOTE: You must include an element with the id of dispatch-countdown__time` ``` * as javascript uses this to update the countdown. */ function your_theme_dispatch_countdown_content( $html, $wording, $product, $countdown ) { // Add the wording $countdown_html = esc_html( $wording ); // Add the element for js to update – be sure to include the product ID as shown $countdown_html .= ‚ ‚; // Add the countdown text $countdown_html .= esc_html( $countdown ); // Close the countdown element $countdown_html .= “; ``` return $countdown_html; ``` } add_filter( ‚dispatch_countdown_content‘, ‚your_theme_dispatch_countdown_content‘, 10, 4 );` ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/3fc0a7b6069720689a32c5f2476bbb8089902b4422e9d15545c0ad4513e365ca? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Simple and Effective](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-and-effective-1219/)󠁿 [kyarauk](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kyarauk/) November 22, 2020 I was a bit doubtful in installing this plugin given it hasn’t got any reviews or many installations, but I was wrong. I needed something a lightweight way to offer a dispatch message on my product pages and after testing it locally with no issues, I added it to my site and so far it has worked as expected. The code supplied to move the message doesn’t seem to work, but I am happy having it where it is.
