To make the countdown timer you cloned from a showcase in Webflow start counting down on your website, you'll need to follow these steps:

Select the countdown timer element: In the Webflow Designer, navigate to the page where you want to place the countdown timer. Select the countdown timer element you cloned from the showcase by clicking on it.
Set the target date and time: Open the Element Settings panel for the countdown timer element. Look for the "Target Date" or "End Date" field. Enter the date and time you want the countdown to end.
Configure countdown options: Customize the countdown timer to your preferences. In the Element Settings panel, you will find options to choose the countdown format (days, hours, minutes, seconds), customize the text, change the font, adjust the size, and modify the styling to match your website's design.
Test and preview: Preview your changes to ensure the countdown timer is counting down correctly. You can do this by using the "Preview" mode or by publishing the website and checking the countdown timer on the live site.
Publish your website: Once you're satisfied with the countdown timer's setup and styling, publish your website to make the countdown timer live and accessible to your visitors.

By following these steps, you'll be able to make the countdown timer you cloned from a Webflow showcase start counting down on your website. Keep in mind that you can customize the countdown timer further using Webflow's designer tools to match your website's branding and design.
