    Hi there,

    I love the plugin but I can’t get the counter to increase by 1 per 24 hrs. I have added 86400000 as the pace. Please see the full shortcode I have used:
    [thecounter num=”1455″ date=”2015-07-22″ increment=”1″ pace=”86400000″]
    I am hoping to increase the count to 1456 tomorrow.
    At the minute I just get a huge number of around 3 million plus. Can you steer me in the right direction?

    Ahh, I see. The date needs to be a date that is current or in the past. The code calculates from now back to that date to determine what number to show. Then it waits the appointed time and adds the increment.

    Based on what you have now, the number won’t change until 7-23. 7-22 + all those seconds.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks for your prompt reply. If I want to start with the counter to display 1455 today then increase by 1 every 24 hrs what would my short code need to be. Would you mind providing me with this.
    Best wishes

    Hi there,

    [thecounter num=”1461″ date=”2015-07-21″ increment=”1″ pace=”86400000″]

    I have changed the code to the above but it’s still not working. I was hoping to increase the 1461 counter by 1 daily. Can you take a look at the code and give me the new short code to achieve this.

    Many Thanks,

    Ozz
