Hi, I use Debut theme and will release my homepage on 27/11 and I want to have a countdown timer on the password page? Does anyone know how to add that? I only want a countdown timer, not connected to any product or something like that, only a visual timer.
I hope someone know how to help me.
Regards Daniel
Hi, @IdealDesign ,
Hank here from Shopify.
Having a countdown timer on your password page can build a lot of excitement for customers that come across your store, eager to see what lies beyond the password page!
A very popular app for this function is Coming Soon Page. They advertise on that page that the app can âUse attractive backgrounds and a countdown timer to get your audience excited about the big launchâ!
There also may be other ways this may be written into the code for your theme, so if you were to share your store URL then, hopefully, someone with more technical skills in the community will come across this and be able to add some value to you here, but if not, your best bet might be to reach out to one of our Shopify Experts, who you can hire to do almost any custom work on your store.
If you were to reach out to them about this query, they would be able to resolve this issue for you.
I will also move this thread to a more applicable board which may offer more coverage for your post, but if you have any additional questions, let me know!
All the best,
Hank
I found how to fix it on this site: https://easycodeguide.com/how-to-add-a-simple-sales-countdown-timer-to-your-shopify-theme.html (I did some modification in the code.)
If someone also searching for this, here is how I did.
I created a new snippet and pasted this code:
{% if end_date != blank %}> > {% if title != blank %}> #### {{ title }}> {% endif %}> >
00> Days>00> Hours>
00> Minutes>
00> Seconds>
{% endif %}
And in the password.liquid I added this:
{% include âshopifyexplorer-countdown-timerâ,> end_date: âNov 27, 2020â> %}Now I got the function I wanted, just some text and css left
How can i change the Release Date to a certain hour? Say April 1, 2021 plus a 24 hour format. So for example April 1, 2021, 18:00?
Thanks in advance

Hi. This did not work for me, I went step by step. Creating the snippet and adding the additional code to the password.liquid section.
Hello
Thanks for this - itâs perfect!
However it doesnât scale with my theme, Iâm using a responsive site - minimal but it doesnât scale for different devices.
I have queried this and someone mentioned using Media Queries however I do not know enough about CSS & HMTL to input it into the code.
Can you help? I would love any help from anyone!
Thanks
Where do I add this in password liquid?
At the end or beginning?
Date & TIme format: "Sep 25, 2021 09:00
{% include âshopifyexplorer-countdown-timerâ,
end_date: âNov 27, 2020 18:00â
%}
Where is the password liquid is the code supposed to be added to? You didnât say @IdealDesign
@MaileLacno Just Put it in the âPassword.liquidâ somewhere in between ââ and ââ
@IdealDesign is it possible to add the Countdown IN this Box?
Or in the White Header?
Can´t find a solution for that.
How do I make the timer fit for mobile devices also?
Hello my friend, I tell you that to adapt it to mobile, you would have to know css to be able to adapt it because if not you may not be able to but you can contact me if I could help you
if you can, only that you would have to modify the liquid of the slider to be able to place it, contact me and we will see it
Hi, ive do the same way but my countdown is at the bottom and not at the middle or top. Do you have any solution for it?

After many searches and coding too much code, I managed to find this APP that is helping me, it is also compatible with Android and IOS I recommend it, it gives you a code to place it where you want, center it or place it on the sides, you can also use the same code for products
