 * My client wants to launch their new website during a launch event with guests
   etc.
    So i want to test what happens for someone watching the countdown reaching
   00:00:00…
 * What we want is the countdown to end by April 20th at 6:30 pm and then the website
   to launch automatically WITHOUT having to refresh the page! Is this possible?
 * Then, while trying to test this feature i discovered that it is impossible to
   test it!
    Indeed, if it is now, say 8pm and i want to see what happens if countdown
   ends at 8:02, i first set it to end at 8:02, then i logout and go check what 
   happens on the timer. Well, it seems that no matter what i try or do, the countdown
   ALLWAYS shows a minimum of 2 more hours to go!! (even if i set it to expire after
   just 2 minutes!)
 * How can this be? I’ve tried everyting, including playing with the time and timezone
   settings in WordPress general settings. Nothing helps, it always shows at least
   2 hours to go…

 * Are you using the Pro Version?
 * If so in the future open up a ticket at [http://www.seedprod.com/members](http://www.seedprod.com/members)
   🙂
 * So yes the pro version will auto launch the site when it hits 0. To test **make
   sure you have the time zone set correctly in WordPress under Settings > General**
 * Then set the count down to expire in 5 minutes. Log out and you’ll see the site
   auto launch.
 * If you need more assistance open a ticket and include your site url and credentials
   and i can take a look.
 * Thanks,
