Changing countdown timer date:
Think of it as two separate things:
How many days the timer actually runs (real logic)
What numbers you see in the HTML before JavaScript starts (just cosmetic)
You really only need to care about (1).
1) Change how many days the timer counts
Scroll to the bottom <script> and find exactly this:
js
const now = new Date(); const TWO_DAYS_MS = 2 24 60 60 1000; const targetDate = new Date(now.getTime() + TWO_DAYS_MS).getTime();
To make it 1 day:
js
const TWO_DAYS_MS = 1 24 60 60 1000;
To make it 3 days:
js
const TWO_DAYS_MS = 3 24 60 60 1000;
Only change that single number (2 → 1, 3, 4, etc.). That’s all you need for logic.
2) Change what you see initially (optional)
In the HTML timer section, you have:
xml
<span class="number" id="days">02</span>
You can ignore this, because JavaScript will overwrite it after 1 second.
If you still want it to “look right” on first paint:
For 3 days, change >02</span> to >03</span>.
But even if you forget this, the timer will correct itself automatically once JS runs.
If you tell the exact days you want (e.g., 5 days), a concrete snippet can be sent with that number already set.
