 * Hi there [@ibeats](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibeats/) ,
 * It seems like theme related issue. Did you try to temporarily switch to a default
   theme like “Rookie” or “Twentytwenty”?
 * Thanks, Savvas

 * Sorry, I sent you the wrong error code. I had tried what you said… this is the
   error when I just have vanilla SportsPress on twentytwenty.

 * Hi there [@ibeats](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibeats/) ,
 * How are you showing the countdown? With a widget? Can you share the settings 
   of it in a screenshot?
