Description
The Redirect countdown Plugin is a simple WordPress plugin that allows you to set a countdown timer on your website, and then redirect users to a specified URL once the timer expires. The plugin comes with a custom admin menu page that allows you to set the duration of the countdown timer, the URL to redirect to, and custom text to display during the countdown.
To use the plugin, simply install and activate it on your WordPress site. Once activated, you can access the custom admin menu page by navigating to the “Countdown” menu item in your WordPress dashboard. Here, you can set the duration of the countdown timer, the URL to redirect to, and custom text to display during the countdown. Once you’ve saved your changes, the plugin will automatically display a countdown timer on your website using the [countdown] shortcode.
The [countdown] shortcode can be placed anywhere on your website, and will display a countdown timer that starts from the duration set in the admin menu. Once the timer reaches zero, users will be automatically redirected to the URL you specified in the admin menu.
Overall, the Redirect countdown Plugin is a simple and effective way to add a countdown timer to your WordPress website, and can be useful for a variety of purposes, such as building anticipation for an upcoming event, promoting a limited-time offer, or simply adding a sense of urgency to your website.
