Common Issues & Troubleshooting

Issue	Cause	Fix
Timer Not Starting	startTime is not set correctly, or the element is missing from the page.	Set startTime to a valid number (e.g., 0). Ensure the Ultimate Timer element is present and visible.
Timer Not Updating	The workflow may not be triggering, or no element is bound to display time.	Check that the Start Timer workflow runs. Bind a text element to currentTime_text for updates.
States Not Resetting	The Reset Timer action wasn't triggered, or conflicting workflows are interfering.	Ensure Reset Timer is in the workflow. Check for any conflicting actions or conditions.
Timer Resets on Refresh	Timer state is not persisted between page loads.	Store currentTime_ms in the database and reload it when the page loads.
Inaccurate Time Display	The text element may not be bound correctly, or display/rendering issues on some devices.	Verify currentTime_text is linked to a visible text element. Test across multiple devices.
