 * Hello Marli-Annet.
    I think you’ve placed the clock’s shortcode as a text. To
   display the clock, you must place the shortcode into content area or shortcode
   area. NOT like text. Please, wite back when you make the changes. Thank you.

 * Hello!
    I asked about this problem developer of the theme, which I use. He answered
   that field where I tried to put shortcode doesn’t parse shortcodes by default
   and recommended me to use Code Snippets plugin or write such code at function.
   php – `add_filter( 'term_description', 'do_shortcode' );`. I tried both recommendations,
   but clock doesn’t work. I didn’t see shortcode’s code on web-page but I didn’t
   see clock too. Also I tried to use your shorcode at usual page and have the same
   problem. For example: – this is a page at admin panel at visual editor. There
   are two shortcodes – [https://yadi.sk/i/lnDmDPZtQLm6Zg](https://yadi.sk/i/lnDmDPZtQLm6Zg)–
   this is a page which I see as a result – [https://yadi.sk/i/NWkj_NhYNuIrhw](https://yadi.sk/i/NWkj_NhYNuIrhw)–
   no any clock. What can I do also to resolve the problem?
