The Countdown timer (blocks) preset is a prebuilt layout in Flexible content. Pair a countdown with a campaign message and image for launches or limited-time promotions.
Available in Be Yours 10.0.0 or later. The preset is optional and does not change existing pages unless you add it.
STEPS:
1. Add the Countdown timer (blocks) Preset
- From Shopify admin, open Online Store > Themes and click Customize.
- Open the template where you want to display the content.
- Select Add section and open the Flexible category.
- Choose Countdown timer (blocks).
- Edit the preset's blocks and click Save.
Note: Choose the preset when adding the section. It creates a Flexible content section with ready-made blocks; you can then customize those blocks.
2. Understand the Preset Structure
The starting layout contains:
- Row with two equal columns
- First column: Group with Subheading, Heading, Text, Countdown, and Button
- Second column: Image
You can edit and rearrange the nested blocks in the Theme Editor.
3. Configure the Content
- Edit the campaign message in the Group.
- Open Countdown and enter the End date.
- Add an optional post-countdown Message.
- Replace the Image and set the button destination.
Add more blocks
- Select the Flexible content section, or a container block such as Row, Grid, Group, Banner, or Slider.
- Click Add block, choose the block you want, then configure its settings.
- Drag blocks to rearrange them. You can add or remove blocks beyond the preset's starting layout.

5. Notes and Troubleshooting
- The end date must follow mm-dd-yyyy.
- The timer is informational; it does not automatically activate or end Shopify discounts.
- If something does not appear, check that the relevant block has content and is not hidden.
- For mobile layouts, review the parent Row/Grid/Slider settings where applicable and preview the page in mobile mode.
- If highlight styling is enabled, select the words to highlight and click the italic (I) button in the text editor.
