 * I would like for the countdown to show in real time. It updates when the page
   is refreshed but does not show the animation of the countdown.
 * Here is a link to my site: [http://matt-shana.com/](http://matt-shana.com/)

 * Your theme is not loading jQuery.
    Check that your head.php file is firing the
   [wp_head() function](https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/wp_head).
 * You also seem to be using W3 Total Cache. Does it work when this is deactivated?
   If so, check your settings.

 * Twinpictures,
 * Thank you for your quick response. I got it! I added this to the end of functions.
   php:
 * if (!is_admin()) add_action(“wp_enqueue_scripts”, “my_jquery_enqueue”, 11);
    
   function my_jquery_enqueue() { wp_deregister_script(‘jquery’); wp_register_script(‘
   jquery’, “http” . ($_SERVER[‘SERVER_PORT’] == 443 ? “s” : “”) . “://ajax.googleapis.
   com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js”, false, null); wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery’);}
 * Thank you!
