 * Hello there. I plan to extract each countdown element to fit them in a box or
   something. I tried to modify the code but no luck. I even thought I could just
   create a function which returns the resultant days, hours, minutes and seconds
   but obviously, I’m wrong. Can someone help me with this? I’ll really appreciate
   it. Thanks in advance!

 * Can you be more specific about what you’re trying to do?

 * I was trying to modify how the timer is outputted. I wanted to get the number
   of days and fit it in a certain container on my page. Same with the hours, minutes
   and seconds. Does that make sense?

 * [@theturingmachine](https://wordpress.org/support/users/theturingmachine/): This
   isn’t within the scope of what the plugin was designed to do. You could probably
   mash something up using CSS, but that’s outside the scope of the help I’m able
   to provide gratis.
