How to change the start date of countdown

    I created a counter to count down to 180 days. When I created it, already 90 days have passed. I would like to create or adjust the start date to show that we are half way through the 180 days.

    I didn’t see a start date option, only an end date. I think the plugin uses the “Published” date as the start date?

    I can’t change the published date when editing the counter, but I can by clicking on ‘Quick Edit’, however it didn’t change the counter.

    Thank you! ??

    Hi @scottalvar,

    Can I clarify one thing?
    So you want to show with countdown passed time from start date?

    Yes. ??

    Like in your screen shot: https://ps.w.org/countdown-builder/assets/screenshot-6.png?rev=1845953

    In my example above, if I create a 180 day time after 90 days have passed, I feel like it should show half way there, like the 24 seconds out of 60 seconds in your pictures.

    Dear @scottalvar,

    I can suggest you one solution.
    Select count up from after expire, and from due date write your old date.

    Hello,
    Thank you for your response. I see that is a very cool way to get a count down timer to count UP! ??

    I was reading through the help sections and I think my problem is the “Enable Progress” under the Progress Bar settings. I think this is what I was asking and now I see that it is a pro option.

    I did not see that option before, when I asked my question. Thank you for taking time to look at my problem and try to help me.
