 * Greetings:
 * I am having a problem with the timer. When I post a comment, the timer just says“
   undefined”, instead of the usual count down from 5 minutes. What’s happening?
   Please advise. Thank you in advance!

 * Hello again, I tried deactivating and then reactivating simple comment editing,
   but that did not work. I deactivated all other plugins, and then reactivated 
   them one by one including my cache plugin (WP-Rocket), and that did not work.
   It does not work with IE or Google Chrome. But, it does work on a mobile devise
   using Android … strange. Please advise. Thank you!

 * Hello Ronald, how are you? Yes, but … my site is password protected, so I have
   to set up a username and password for you. I’d rather email that info to you,
   instead of posting it here. Can you give me an email address? Actually, you can
   send an email to me at [steven.doran@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/timer-doesnt-work-1/steven.doran@gmail.com?output_format=md)
   and I will return the email with the login info … okay? Thank you!

 * Hey Ronald, how are you? Guess what? I figured it out … problem solved! I use
   Amazon’s cloudfront cdn and sometimes when I update something, the cdn cache 
   doesn’t always clear right away, or it takes 24 hours or more to clear. And even
   though updating a plugin usually forces the cache to clear, it didn’t with your
   plugin … strange. I have two cloudfront cdn distributions setup, so what I did
   was disable the cdn I was using, and tried the plugin, and the timer worked …
   yes! And then, I enabled the other distribution, and again … the timer worked,
   no problem! Thank you very much for your attention and help! Best regards, Steve

 * Hello again, I spoke too soon … still having problems with the timer. Not getting
   the undefined thing, but when the count down is happening, if I refresh the page,
   more time gets added to the timer … sometimes much more than 5 minutes. Not sure
   if it is a cache or cookie thing … please check into it. Thanks again!
