 * Hi,
 * I would like to use the plugin on a german website. Is there a possibility to
   change fields like the countdown e.g. to another language? How can I change the
   layout of a giveaway and delete or edit fields?
 * Thank you for your help 🙂
    Anika

 * Hi [@anikacsmedia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anikacsmedia/),
 * the countdown part is a bit tricky (for now), but you can copy the code from 
   here [http://keith-wood.name/js/jquery.countdown-de.js](http://keith-wood.name/js/jquery.countdown-de.js)
   to Giveaways > Settings > Scripts (in the footer) and it should translate the
   countdown text.
 * For other parts, you could use translation plugins. This plugin does not have
   a German translation contribution so for now, only translation plugins that can
   help with translating such strings can help. Maybe something like this [https://wordpress.org/plugins/gettext-override-translations/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/gettext-override-translations/)(
   I’ve not tried it).
 * The layout of the giveaway can be changed only by custom coding a new template(
   the premium version has a few pre-defined templates). To delete or edit fields,
   you can use the Giveaway > Settings > Form.

 * Hi [@unstat1c](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unstat1c/), I am working on
   an update 2.21.0 that will fix that issue.

 * Hi [@unstat1c](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unstat1c/), I can’t see it
   as it is in preview mode. It should not be shown in the footer.

 * Hi, wrap it inside of `<script>... </script>`. With the latest version, now you
   can add various code there. Enabled that if someone beeds custom fb tracking 
   code and similar which may require you to add regular html.
 * That is why now JavaScript code has to be wrapped with the script tag.

 * Hi [@unstat1c](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unstat1c/),
 * with 2.21.0 (pushed a few minutes ago), there is a new setting under Settings
   > Scripts where you can put the full URL to the translation file where the code
   for translating the countdown is. It will then be applied on the giveaway countdown.

 * Hi, is your site using a different language?
 * It will use that option only if the site is also on a different language.
 * Also, be sure to refresh the cache of the site or autoptimize, if you are using
   something like that.
