 * The seconds were supposed to actually countdown, right? Well, it isn’t.
    I tried
   looking into resolved threads to find a solution, but couldn’t find any. The 
   countdown is in the footer, as a widget (since the shortcode doenst’ work there):

   Thanks.

 * Please look at your theme’s header.php or functions.php for the following:
 *     ```
       <script language="javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.4/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
       ```
   
 * This is a very common mistake of force-loading an [old version of jQuery.](http://plugins.twinpictures.de/wordpress-jquery-versions/)
   
   Remove this line, and you should be fine. Let us know if it works out for you.
