 * hi – I’ve just updated to WordPress 5.5 but I’m having issues with the javascript
   conflicting with some core WordPress functionality ( cant open my widgets to 
   edit ) I can turn the plugin off for temporary acess but it would be great if
   there was an update ?

 *  Uncaught TypeError: o.widget is not a function
    at menu.min.js?ver=1.11.4:11
   at menu.min.js?ver=1.11.4:11 at menu.min.js?ver=1.11.4:11 (index):1554 Uncaught
   SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list (index):1562 Uncaught ReferenceError:

 * I was having the same issue; and additionally, the customizer on the frontend
   wasn’t working (just showed a blank site).
 * I think I’ve found a fix but have only done minimal testing (so far so good!).
   In the jquery.dialog.js file in plugins>the_countdown>js I changed every instance
   of “live” to “on” inside _(function($) { totalDialog = {_ at line 7, like so:
   `
   $('ul.nav-tabs li').live("click", function(){` to `$('ul.nav-tabs li').on("click",
   function(){`
 * Hope this works for you too!
