 * Hi,
 * You’ll need to use the password “QueensPark” to view the link. I’ve got Smart
   Countdown FX and Smart Countdown FX Easy Recurring Events installed and configured.
 * When I try to use the shortcode, it doesn’t work – I’ve tested it in Divi and
   Twenty Nineteen themes, in text and code modules.
 * In both themes, the widget works – you can see it in the footer on the link provided.
 * Any suggestions why the shortcodes aren’t working? I’ve tried multiple versions(
   one counter only, two counters combined) with no success.

   to see the link]_

 * Please, provide the shortcode you are using. Widget mode is working OK.

 * Hi,
 * I’ve tried a number of shortcodes, at the minute I’m trying this one:
 * import_config=”scd_easy_recurrence::1″
 * Thanks

 * I have checked your site. It should be a misprint with the shortcode – I just
   see it literally on your page import_config=”scd_easy_recurrence::1″.
 * “import_config” is not a shortcode itself, it’s just an attribute of “smartcountdown”
   shortcode, e.g. [smartcountdown import_config=”scd_easy_recurrence::1″ mode=”
   countdown_to_end” title_before_down=”Next service in:” title_before_up=”Current
   service ends in:”]
