Countdown · widgetCountdown Widget for Your Website
Put a live countdown to New Year, the school holidays, a holiday or your own date on your site: pick the event and the look, copy the code — and the counter keeps itself up to date. The widget sets no cookies, loads no counters and needs no sign-up.

How to add it
Tilda
Add a T123 “HTML code” block to the page (the “Other” section).
Press “Content” and paste the copied code.
Save and publish — the widget may not show in the editor, but it is there on the published page.
WordPress
In the page editor add a “Custom HTML” block.
Paste the code and switch to “Preview”.
Update the page. In the classic editor use the “Text” tab, not “Visual”.
1C-Bitrix
Open the page in the visual editor.
Switch to “Code” (or “HTML”) mode.
Paste the code where you want it and save.
Wix
Press “Add” → “Embed code” → “Embed HTML”.
In the block settings choose “Code” and paste it.
Stretch the block to the widget’s width and height and publish the site.
uCoz
Open the control panel → “Builder” or the page editor.
Switch to HTML code mode.
Paste the code and save.
Plain HTML
Paste the code where the widget should go — inside the column.
The width follows the column; each size has its own height.
If your site has a Content Security Policy, add bringer.ru to frame-src.

How it works
Updates itself
The widget counts time in the visitor’s browser. On the day it congratulates, and from the next day it counts to the next occurrence: “until New Year” keeps working for years without new code.
No tracking
No cookies, no Metrica, no browser storage. We only see the domain of the site showing the widget and the number of views — nothing about people and no page address.
Breaks nothing
The code is a single frame with no scripts. It does not run on your page, does not touch its styles and works in builders that forbid scripts.
An image for forums
Where frames are not allowed, use the image: it shows days and updates after midnight Moscow time. The brand is drawn in it, and the link is nofollow.
Pick the event, size and theme, press “Copy code” and paste it into an HTML block on your site: in Tilda it is the T123 “HTML code” block, in WordPress the “Custom HTML” block, in Bitrix the visual editor in “Code” mode. Steps for Wix, uCoz and plain HTML are under “How to add it”. The code is a single iframe tag with no scripts, so even strict site builders accept it.
Yes, it is free and needs no sign-up: set the widget up here, copy the code and put it on your site, no account required. The only condition is the small “bringer.ru” line at the bottom of the widget; it cannot be removed, and it tells visitors where the counter comes from. There is no limit on sites or views, and an “until New Year” widget never needs renewing.
No. The widget sets no cookies, loads no Yandex Metrica or other counters and stores nothing in the visitor’s browser. We only see the domain of the site it is shown on — not the page address — and the number of views, with nothing about people. So you do not need to change your privacy policy or show a separate cookie notice for the widget.
On the day of the event the widget congratulates — “Today is New Year!” — and from the next day it counts down to the next occurrence. That is why an “until New Year” or “until September 1” widget keeps working for years without changing the code. For your own date the widget shows “Arrived” on the day and then how many days have passed.
The image is for places where you cannot paste HTML with a frame: forums, LiveJournal, email signatures. It shows the number of days only and updates once a day, after midnight Moscow time, and goes in with BBCode or an img tag. The widget is live: it counts hours, minutes and seconds, changes by itself on the day of the event and follows the width of your column.
Yes: three sizes, a light, dark or transparent theme, your own colour for the digits, units from “days only” to seconds, Russian or English and a time zone — the visitor’s own or any region’s. The width follows your site’s column: on a narrow one the digits shrink instead of wrapping. Each size has its own height, which does not depend on the width.
